Greek pizza is another delicious variation of pizza that is typically topped with Mediterranean-inspired ingredients. Here's a recipe to prepare Greek pizza:
Ingredients:
- Pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
- Olive oil, for brushing
- 1 cup tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup sliced Kalamata olives
- 1/2 cup sliced red onions
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Optional toppings: sliced bell peppers, sliced cucumbers, artichoke hearts, spinach leaves
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on your pizza dough package or at 475°F (245°C) if using homemade dough.
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a greased pizza stone or baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes with minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasonings to your taste.
Brush the pizza dough with olive oil to create a barrier between the sauce and the crust, preventing it from getting soggy. Leave a small border around the edges.
Spread the tomato sauce mixture evenly over the pizza dough.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by crumbled feta cheese.
Add the sliced Kalamata olives, red onions, diced tomatoes, and any other optional toppings you prefer.
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for added freshness.
Slice the pizza and serve hot.
Greek pizza is a flavorful and satisfying choice. Feel free to experiment with additional ingredients such as fresh herbs, tzatziki sauce, or a drizzle of olive oil over the toppings. Enjoy!
