I ordered a pizza in the evening. The delivery driver brought it to me.

If you mean a homemade pizza recipe inspired by a delivered pizza, here’s an easy version you can make at home. 🍕

Easy Homemade Pizza

Ingredients

For the dough

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ¾ cup warm water

For the topping

  • ½ cup pizza sauce
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, pepperoni, or vegetables
  • ½ bell pepper, sliced
  • ¼ onion, thinly sliced
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp chili flakes, optional

Instructions

  1. Make the dough: Mix flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add warm water and olive oil and knead for about 5–7 minutes until smooth.
  2. Let it rise: Cover and leave somewhere warm for 45–60 minutes, or until roughly doubled.
  3. Shape: Heat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll or stretch the dough into a pizza round and place it on a lightly oiled baking tray.
  4. Add toppings: Spread on pizza sauce, leaving a small border. Add cheese, chicken or other toppings, vegetables, oregano, and chili flakes.
  5. Bake: Bake for approximately 10–15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  6. Rest and serve: Let the pizza cool for 2–3 minutes before slicing.

🍕 Delivery-style tip

For a crispier crust, preheat the baking tray or pizza stone before putting the pizza on it, and don’t overload the pizza with wet toppings.
