Instructions
Preparation
- 1Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Lightly grease a 12-inch round pizza pan or baking sheet with olive oil.
- 2Stretch or roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and place it onto the prepared pan. If using a thicker Greek-style crust, press it evenly into the pan, extending slightly up the sides.
- 3In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the minced garlic. Brush this mixture evenly over the pizza dough, reaching almost to the edges.
Assembly and Baking
- 1Evenly scatter the chopped artichoke hearts, Kalamata olives, and sliced red onion over the garlic-brushed pizza dough.
- 2Distribute the crumbled feta cheese over the toppings. Sprinkle generously with dried oregano, and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
- 3Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and lightly golden in spots. Cooking times may vary depending on your oven and crust thickness.
- 4Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, if desired, and immediately sprinkle with fresh chopped dill.
- 5Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious Artichoke Feta Greek Pizza!
