  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam

Ingredients

– 1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy, your choice)
– 1 large onion, sliced
– 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 pre-made pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)
– 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/2 cup marinara sauce (optional)
– Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Making Sausage and Peppers Pizza is straightforward. Follow these steps for delicious results:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven according to the pizza crust package instructions (usually around 450°F or 232°C).
2. Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the Italian sausage until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the sliced onions and bell peppers until they are tender and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
4. Prepare Pizza Crust: If using a store-bought crust, roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
5. Add Sauce (Optional): Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce across the pizza crust if desired.
6. Layer Ingredients: Distribute the cooked sausage evenly over the crust. Add the sautéed peppers and onions on top.
7. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the entire pizza, ensuring even coverage.
8. Bake Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the crust is crispy.
9. Cool and Garnish: Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
10. Slice and Serve: Cut into slices and enjoy!
