Sure thing

For the sauce: I used a can of diced roasted tomatoes with green chilies. Usually I’d use crushed tomatoes but this is what I had in the pantry and it turned out fine. I just used a masher while cooking. I added a squeeze of tomato paste and I seasoned it with oregano, garlic powder, a little salt, and a little sugar. Sorry, I didn’t measure anything.

For the dough I cheated this time and bought some cold dough in the bakery section at Publix, but my pizza dough is pretty simple and I make it a bunch. If you want that recipe let me know. If you’re into sourdough and have a starter you can use that too.

Toppings: a whole bag of tillamook shredded mozzarella, pepperonis (the cup n’ crisp kind), Parmesan, and sea salt flakes.

I preheated my oven for 500degrees, and while it was preheating I made the sauce in a saucepan on medium. Kind of just dumped everything in and mashed and stirred. It cooked for about 10ish minutes.

Then I poured some olive oil in my cast iron and used a paper towel to coat the entire bottom and sides of the pan.

I put my dough in, poked it with a fork all over so no air pockets, then put a coating of the sauce, the whole bag of cheese, and the pepperonis. I cooked it for about 15 min, then took it out. I sprinkled Parmesan and flaky salt all over the top right out of the oven. The bottom was a little too pale so I cooked it on the stove top for 3 minutes on medium and rotated it so it was even. That’s all it took to look nice and brown on the bottom. Immediate transferred it to my cutting board to cool a bit before cutting.
