Irresistible Homemade Chive and Parmesan Pizza

Ingredients

- 1 ball of pizza dough
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for dusting)
- 1 tablespoon semolina flour (for dusting)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
Heat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Allow it to preheat for at least 20 minutes to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for a perfectly cooked pizza.

2. Prepare the Dough:
On a clean surface, sprinkle a mixture of 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon semolina flour to prevent sticking. Gently stretch and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Place the dough on a pizza peel or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

3. Add the Sauce:
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges for the crust.

4. Sprinkle the Cheese:
Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese over the pizza sauce, covering the entire surface except the edges.

5. Season the Pizza:
Sprinkle the dried oregano evenly over the cheese to infuse the pizza with aromatic herbs.

6. Bake the Pizza:
Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated oven rack or a pizza stone if using. Bake for approximately 12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling and lightly browned.

7. Add Fresh Chives:
Immediately after removing the pizza from the oven, sprinkle the freshly chopped chives over the top for a burst of fresh, mild onion flavor.

8. Serve:
Allow the pizza to cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve hot, and enjoy your homemade chive and parmesan pizza.
