Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Mince the garlic cloves and thinly slice the red onion. Cut the cherry tomatoes into halves and slice the grilled steak against the grain into thin strips.
Remove the heated pizza stone from the oven and carefully place the dough on it.
Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Arrange the sliced steak, minced garlic, sliced red onion, cherry tomato halves, and black olives over the BBQ sauce.
Crumble feta cheese over the toppings and sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Bake the pizza in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese starts to brown slightly.
While the pizza is baking, toss the baby arugula with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl.
Once the pizza is cooked, remove it from the oven and top it with the fresh baby arugula and basil leaves.
Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving to enjoy the full spectrum of Mediterranean-style flavors.
