Sprinkle dried oregano and black pepper over the toppings.

Step 8

Drizzle the teaspoon of olive oil over the pizza for added flavor.

Step 9

Using a pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet, slide the pizza with its parchment paper onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crisp and the cheese is bubbling.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.

Step 12

Top with fresh arugula and optionally sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes if you enjoy a spicier kick.
