Description

A simple recipe for a flavorful pizza topped with garlic, herbs, and cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made pizza crust (about 12 inches)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven according to the pizza crust package directions, usually around 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, basil, and thyme. This is your herb oil.
  3. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border for the edge.
  4. Drizzle the herb oil mixture over the sauce.
  5. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce and oil.
  6. Top with the Parmesan cheese.
  7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs if available for a stronger flavor.
  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the herbs for a little heat.
