Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package (or homemade, about 12-inch base) Pizza dough
- 1 can (about 5 ounces) Canned tuna
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 cup (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup (thinly sliced) Red onion
- 0.25 cup (thinly sliced) Green bell pepper
- 0.25 cup (sliced) Black olives
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh cilantro or parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
Roll out the pizza dough to approximately 12 inches in diameter on a lightly floured surface. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
In a small bowl, mix the drained tuna, red chili flakes, and garlic powder. Distribute the chili tuna mixture evenly over the tomato sauce.
Top the pizza with shredded mozzarella cheese, followed by the sliced red onion, green bell pepper, and black olives.
Drizzle olive oil over the toppings for added flavor and to help them cook beautifully.
Carefully transfer the pizza (with the parchment paper) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley if desired.
Slice and serve your Chili Tuna Pizza warm. Enjoy!
