Pepperoncini and Onion Vegetarian Pizza
This Pepperoncini and Onion Pizza is one of my absolute favorites that I make nearly every week. It's a simple red sauce pizza topped with melty mozzarella cheese, sharp onions, bright and brine-y pepperoncini, and delicious garlic. It's a unique pizza topping pairing that you'll wish you tried sooner!
Yield: 4 servings
INGREDIENTS
- 1 ball pizza dough
- ¾ cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ small red onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup pepperoncini chopped
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 425℉
- On a floured surface roll out your dough to about 12" all around. If it's not a perfect circle that's completely fine. Transfer it to your baking sheet (lined with parchment) or pizza stone and brush the olive oil from crust to crust.
- Evenly spread the tomato sauce leaving ½" of the crust bare around the edges.
- Evenly sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce. Then follow with the onions, pepperoncini, and garlic.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown.
- Top the finished pizza with the parmesan and (optional) fresh oregano.
