Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Appetizer

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Cherry Tomatoes

    Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook until they soften, about 5-7 minutes. Add chopped basil and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  4. 4

    Prepare Pizza Dough

    On a floured surface, divide the pizza dough into 2 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a circle approximately 12 inches in diameter.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Pizzas

    Place the rolled dough on pizza stones or baking sheets. Spread the tomato mixture evenly over each pizza base. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, salami, bell peppers, black olives, and oregano.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizzas

    Bake each pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
