Description
Here’s an easy homemade Greek Pizza recipe that comes together in only 20 minutes thanks to a few convenience items and pantry staples! It’s loaded with artichokes, roasted red peppers, feta and black olives.
Ingredients
1 store-bought thin-style pizza crust, 10 ounces (11 to 12 inches diameter)
1/2 cup purchased tomato basil marinara sauce
3/4 teaspoon Greek seasoning herb blend
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup artichoke hearts drained and chopped
1/4 cup (1 ounce) crumbled feta cheese, preferably reduced fat
1/4 cup sliced roasted red pepper
1/4 cup Greek black olives, such as Kalamata, pitted and roughly chopped
1/8 cup thinly sliced red onion
2 tablespoons sliced fresh basil
Instructions
- Arrange oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Set pizza crust on work surface. Spread tomato sauce over the pizza crust to ½ inch of edge. Sprinkle Greek seasoning over the tomato sauce. Top with mozzarella, artichoke hearts, feta, red onion, olives and roasted peppers.
- Bake pizza directly on the oven rack until the crust is crispy and the mozzarella is melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Top with basil just before serving.
Notes
Make sure your roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts and olives are dry before adding them to top of the pizza. To do so, drain them well, then blot them dry with a clean paper towel.
If you’re a purist, and you have the extra ten minutes, then you can also use fresh pizza dough to make this recipe. To do so simply roll the pizza dough to shape it and par-bake it on a sheet pan on the bottom rack of the oven until it is nicely set up but not browned and crispy before removing it from the pan and adding the toppings. You can also bake it on parchment, directly on the oven rack.
