Marinara / Fresh Mozzarella / Pepperoni / Rosemary Mushrooms / Caramelized Onions Recipe

Pizza Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Caramelized Onions

   Slice the onion and heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with salt. Cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. Set aside.

2. 2

   Sauté the Mushrooms

   In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed and sauté the sliced mushrooms over medium heat until they are browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add fresh rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir well and set aside.

3. 3

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

4. 4

   Assemble the Pizza

   Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza peel or baking sheet. Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Tear the fresh mozzarella into pieces and distribute it on top of the sauce. Add the sautéed mushrooms and caramelized onions, and finally layer the pepperoni slices over everything.

5. 5

   Bake the Pizza

   Carefully slide the assembled pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

6. 6

   Slice and Serve

   Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and serve hot.
