Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pizza dough
  • 4 vine-ripened tomatoes
  • 1 garlic clove chopped
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 pound buffalo mozzarella sliced
  • 1 handful fresh basil leaves

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Place tomatoes in a bowl, cover with boiling water, and let stand for 1 minute.
  3. Drain, rinse tomatoes in cold water, then peel away the skins.
  4. Roughly chop the tomatoes.
  5. Place chopped tomatoes in a bowl with chopped oregano, chopped garlic, and oil.
  6. Add salt and pepper.
  7. If the tomatoes are quite juicy, you can choose to strain off some of the juice.
  8. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round and place it on a baking sheet.
  9. Spread the tomato mixture over the dough. Spread it to the edges but leave a border.
  10. Place sliced mozzarella cheese and basil on top of the sauce.
  11. Drizzle olive oil over the pizza.
  12. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 14 minutes. The cheese should be bubbly and the crust should be slightly browned.
