Preparation

Step 1: In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the sliced onion and peppers. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until softened. Remove and set aside.

Step 2: In the same skillet, cook the beef until browned and just cooked through. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle (about 10×14 inches) on a lightly floured surface.

Step 4: Layer the beef evenly down the center of the dough, followed by the sautéed onions and peppers. Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the top.

Step 5: Fold the long edges of the dough over the filling, then fold in the short ends. Pinch to seal and place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 6: Brush the top with beaten egg. Sprinkle with dried herbs if desired.

Step 7: Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
