For the Dough

For the Sauce
  • 1 cup Tomato Sauce Any preferred pizza sauce can work as a substitution.
For the Toppings
  • 2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese Other cheeses like provolone or cheddar can be used.
  • 4 cloves Garlic Minced; garlic powder can be a substitute if needed.
  • 0.5 small Red Onion Thinly sliced; yellow onion can provide a milder taste.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Gather your baking sheet or pizza stone.
  2. On a floured surface, roll out your pizza dough into a 12-inch round shape and transfer to the baking sheet or stone. Brush with olive oil.
  3. Spread the tomato sauce evenly across the dough, leaving a ½-inch border around the edges.
  4. Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
  5. Add the sliced red onions, followed by the chopped pepperoncini and minced garlic.
  6. Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and top with grated parmesan cheese and fresh oregano if desired. Allow to cool before slicing.

Notes

Allow pizza dough to reach room temperature before rolling to prevent shrinking. For a crispier crust, bake on a preheated pizza stone. Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat at 350°F for best texture.
