Neapolitan Pizza

  1. To make the sauce, using the Ninja ZeroStick Cookware 18cm (2.8L) Saucepan, heat to medium and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.

  2. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Simmer the sauce for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. Place the Roast Rack in the bottom level of the Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Oven, then place the Pizza Stone on top.

  4. Turn the left-hand dial to select PIZZA and set the time to 3 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin preheating (preheating will take approximately 25 minutes).

  5. On a lightly floured work surface, stretch and toss the dough by hand into a 25cm circle about 3 mm thick.

  6. Evenly spread a thin layer of the prepared sauce on the dough, leaving a 1cm edge for the crust. Then top evenly with sliced mozzarella, basil, sliced tomatoes, and a drizzle of olive oil, as desired.

  7. When the Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Oven is preheated, open the door, slide a floured Pizza Peel under the pizza, and transfer it to the hot stone. Close the door, select START/STOP, and cook for 3 minutes. If more time or a darker crust is desired, adjust the time using the right-hand dial.

  8. When cooking is complete, open the door and remove the pizza with the peel. Let it rest for 5 minutes before drizzling with olive oil, cutting, and serving.
