Follow these easy steps to create your own Spicy Sausage & Pepper Pizza:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
3. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled spicy Italian sausage until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat and set aside.
4. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the sliced bell pepper and onion until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
5. Spread the Sauce: Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
7. Layer Toppings: Distribute the cooked sausage and sautéed vegetables evenly over the cheese.
8. Add More Cheese: Top with an additional sprinkle of mozzarella cheese for extra cheesiness.
9. Bake the Pizza: Transfer the pizza to the oven (or onto the hot pizza stone) and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
10. Cool and Slice: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Slice into wedges and garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
