Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.

2. Prepare the Dough

On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a round shape, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer it to a pizza peel or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

3. Add Sauce and Toppings

Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then layer the pepperoni slices and diced hatch green chile on top.

4. Season the Pizza

Drizzle the olive oil over the toppings and season with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

5. Bake the Pizza

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

6. Serve

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy your Las Cruces Pizza!
