Sausage Pizza Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using store-bought pizza dough, let it come to room temperature. Slice shishito peppers and caramelize the onions in a pan with olive oil over medium heat until golden brown.

2. 2

   Cook the Sausage

   In a separate pan, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until fully browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.

3. 3

   Roll Out the Dough

   On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4. 4

   Assemble the Pizza

   Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough. Top with caramelized onions, cooked sausage, shishito peppers, and mozzarella cheese.

5. 5

   Bake the Pizza

   Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Remove the pizza from the oven, season with salt and black pepper, and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Slice and serve hot.
