Ingredients
  

1 store-bought or homemade pizza dough

1 cup cooked salmon, flaked into bite-sized pieces

1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, plus extra for drizzling

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup thinly sliced red onions

1/2 cup mixed bell peppers, sliced (use a combination of red and green for a vibrant look)

1/4 cup chopped green onions (scallions)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

1 tablespoon olive oil

Fresh cilantro or basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C) to create a perfectly crispy crust.

    Prepare the Pizza Base: On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough to your desired thickness, shaping it into either a round or rectangular form. Carefully transfer the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or onto a preheated pizza stone.

      Spread the Teriyaki Sauce: Using a spoon, evenly spread 1/4 cup of teriyaki sauce over the surface of the dough, being sure to leave a small border around the edges for the crust.

        Assemble the Toppings:

          Distribute the flaked salmon evenly over the sauced dough.

            Follow with a generous sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese to cover the salmon.

              Lastly, add the sliced red onions and colorful bell peppers for an added crunch and visual appeal.

                Drizzle and Season: Lightly drizzle the remaining teriyaki sauce over the top of the assembled pizza. For an extra golden crust, brush or spray the edges with olive oil.

                  Bake to Perfection: Slide your pizza into the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it until the crust turns a lovely golden brown and the cheese is bubbly with just a hint of browning.

                    Add the Finishing Touches: Once out of the oven, immediately sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the piping hot pizza. If desired, adorn with fresh cilantro or basil leaves for a fragrant touch.

                      Slice and Serve: Allow the pizza to cool for a few moments before slicing it into wedges. Serve it warm and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!
