Delicious Mediterranean Pizza Recipe for Your Next Meal

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup pizza sauce (preferably marinara or tomato-based)
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
  • 1 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
  • 1 cup black olives (sliced)
  • 1 cup red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (sliced (any color))
  • 1 cup fresh basil (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil (for drizzling)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

    A hot oven helps achieve a crispy crust.
  2. Prepare the Dough

    Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

    Make sure to shape it to fit your baking sheet.
  3. Add Sauce

    Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough.

    Leave a small border around the edges for the crust.
  4. Layer the Toppings

    Sprinkle mozzarella cheese, followed by feta cheese, olives, red onion, and bell peppers.

    Distribute toppings evenly for balanced flavor.
  5. Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden.

    Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
  6. Add Fresh Herbs

    Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh basil and drizzle with olive oil.

    Add herbs right before serving for maximum freshness.
  7. Slice and Serve

    Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.

    Use a pizza cutter for clean slices.
