Shawarma Pizza

Prepare the Dough In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and mix until a soft dough forms.

Let the Dough Rise Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Cook the Shawarma Filling In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and garlic, and cook until softened. Add the thinly sliced chicken or beef, shawarma spice mix, salt, and pepper. Cook until the meat is cooked through and lightly browned. Stir in the sliced bell pepper and mushrooms, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Preheat the Oven Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Roll out the Dough On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle or rectangle, depending on your preference. Transfer the dough to a greased baking sheet or pizza stone.

Add the Toppings Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough. Top with the cooked shawarma filling, shredded mozzarella cheese, sliced black olives, red onions, and cherry tomatoes.

Bake the Pizza Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Prepare the Garlic Sauce While the pizza is baking, prepare the garlic sauce by combining the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl. Stir until well combined.

Serve the Shawarma Pizza Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the garlic sauce over the top and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.
