    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and dry yeast. Add the warm water and olive oil, and knead until you have a smooth and elastic dough. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

    2

    Roll out the risen dough into a thin, circular shape and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    3

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with grated mozzarella cheese.

    4

    Cut the anchovy fillets into smaller pieces and distribute them over the pizza.

    5

    Halve the black and green olives, drain the capers, and arrange them on the pizza.

    6

    Add minced garlic, oregano, black pepper, and a pinch of chili powder for an intense flavor.

    7

    Bake in a preheated oven at 430°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    8

    Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
