Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams All-purpose flour
- 7 grams Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 300 ml Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 150 grams Spicy tomato sauce
- 200 grams Fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 75 grams Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
- 2 small Jalapeño peppers, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Chili flakes
- 10 grams Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
Add the warm water and one tablespoon of olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into two equal pieces.
Roll out one dough piece on a floured surface until you have a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread half of the spicy tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Evenly distribute half of the mozzarella slices over the sauce.
Top with half of the red bell pepper slices, red onion, kalamata olives, and jalapeño slices.
Sprinkle half of the chili flakes over the toppings.
Carefully transfer the pizza, along with the parchment paper, onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is crispy and the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
While the first pizza bakes, prepare the second pizza using the remaining ingredients.
Garnish each baked pizza with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Slice and serve hot.
