Ingredients

• 1 package Pre-made pizza dough
• 250 grams Ground beef
• 1 cup Pizza sauce
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 medium Bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 0.5 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.25 cup Optional: Sliced black olives

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F). If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.

Step 2

In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook and crumble the beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a preheated pizza stone.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.

Step 7

Evenly distribute the cooked ground beef over the pizza. Add the sliced bell pepper, red onion, and any optional toppings, like black olives.

Step 8

Top with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Carefully remove the pizza from the oven. Let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 11

Enjoy your Quick and Easy Beef Pizza!
