Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (12-inch size) Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 20 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 1 thinly sliced Jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 cup Cooked spicy sausage
- 0.25 thinly sliced Red onion
- 6 pieces Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons (grated) Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat.
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it carefully to a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.
Brush the surface of the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to help create a golden crust.
In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce with the crushed red pepper flakes and garlic powder. Spread the sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of crust exposed around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce layer.
Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly across the pizza. Add the cooked spicy sausage, then sprinkle the thinly sliced jalapeño and red onion for extra heat and texture.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the toppings for added flavor and moisture.
Using the parchment paper, transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Carefully remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. Slice into pieces and serve hot. Enjoy your Saucy Wenches Spicy Pizza!
