How to Make Mediterranean Flatbread Pizza
STEP ONE: Warm the Naan
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush both sides of the naan breads with olive oil.
Warm each naan for about 2–3 minutes per side, or until lightly golden and flexible. Transfer to a plate.
STEP TWO: Spread the Hummus
While the naan is still warm, spread about ½ cup of hummus evenly across each piece, leaving a small border around the edges. This will be the flavorful base for all the toppings.
STEP THREE: Add the Toppings
Top each naan with the diced cucumber, diced yellow bell pepper, halved grape tomatoes, sliced Kalamata olives, pepperoncini peppers, and crumbled feta. Scatter the toppings evenly so you get a little bit of everything in every bite.
Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with oregano and Greek seasoning.
STEP FOUR: Finish with Arugula and Serve
Just before serving, pile a handful of fresh arugula on top of each flatbread. Slice into pieces and enjoy warm.
