Pepperoncini and Onion Pizza: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pre-made pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/2 cup sliced pepperoncini peppers
– 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

Making Pepperoncini and Onion Pizza is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crisp crust.
2. Prepare the Crust: If using a store-bought crust, roll it out onto a pizza stone or baking sheet. If homemade, prepare it according to your recipe.
3. Sauté the Onions: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until they are caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
4. Season the Onions: Sprinkle the cooked onions with dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and remove from heat.
5. Assemble the Pizza: Spread a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza crust. Top with the sautéed onions and then the sliced pepperoncini.
6. Add More Cheese: Sprinkle a little more mozzarella on top if desired for extra cheesiness.
7. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
8. Cool and Slice: Once baked, allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing. This helps prevent the toppings from sliding off.
9. Garnish: If desired, add fresh basil leaves on top for an aromatic finish.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible pizza effortlessly.
