Instructions
TOTAL TIME
40 Minutes2-4 people servings
Step 1
Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible, typically around 475-500°F (245-260°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.
Step 2
On a floured surface, stretch out your pizza dough into your desired shape and thickness. Transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
Step 3
Spread a layer of San Marzano tomato sauce evenly over the stretched dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 4
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, covering the entire pizza evenly.
Step 5
Arrange the thinly sliced smoked ham, sliced mushrooms, quartered artichoke hearts, and sliced Kalamata olives on top of the cheese.
Step 6
Sprinkle dried oregano evenly over the toppings. Drizzle a little olive oil over the pizza for added flavor.
Step 7
Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven. If using a pizza stone, slide the pizza onto the hot stone in the oven. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Step 8
Once out of the oven, sprinkle a bit more dried oregano over the hot pizza and drizzle with a little more olive oil for extra flavor.
Step 9
Slice up and enjoy your Pizza Capricciosa with your favorite Gratsi wine!
