phone call icon on iPhone

Help, I am missing the telephone-shaped phone call icon on my iPhone 7. I accidentally removed it and don't know how to recover it. Now can't make phone calls or see my recent calls list, etc. Any help appreciated! Note: this icon comes with the iPhone pre-installed.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

The Phone app is not one of the apps that can be deleted but with iOS 14 it can be removed from the home screen. If you have iOS 14, go to the App Library (swipe left past your last home screen). From there you can touch and hold an app and slide it left back to the home screen.
