Ingredients:

– 1 lb pizza dough, homemade or store-bought

– 1 cup marinara sauce

– 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

– 1 cup chopped bell peppers (red, yellow, and green)

– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

– 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

– 1/2 cup zucchini, thinly sliced

– 1/2 cup yellow squash, thinly sliced

– 1/4 cup black olives, sliced

– 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn

– Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

– Olive oil for drizzling

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a large oven-safe skillet in the oven while it preheats.

2. Prepare the vegetables by chopping the bell peppers, slicing the red onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and black olives, and halving the cherry tomatoes. Set aside.

3. On a well-floured surface or parchment paper, roll out the pizza dough into a circle slightly larger than the skillet you’ll be using.

4. Once the oven has preheated and the skillet is hot, carefully remove it from the oven (using oven mitts) and lightly grease it with olive oil.

5. Carefully place the rolled-out pizza dough into the hot skillet. Press down gently on the dough to ensure it covers the bottom and partially up the sides of the skillet.

6. Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edge for the crust.

7. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the marinara sauce.

8. Top with the chopped bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and black olives.

9. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

10. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the vegetables.

11. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is bubbly and melted.

12. Remove from oven and let it cool for a few minutes before garnishing with fresh torn basil leaves.

13. Carefully remove pizza from the skillet (using a spatula) and transfer it onto a cutting board.

14. Slice into pieces using a pizza cutter or sharp knife and serve while it’s warm!
