How to Make Pizzeria Style Sausage Pizza
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium skillet, brown 1 lb Italian pork sausage (mild or spicy) and 1 green bell pepper (chopped) over medium heat, breaking the sausage into crumbles. Cook until the sausage is browned and the pepper is softened (about 8-10 minutes).
- Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
- Stir in 1 (24 ounce) jar of tomato sauce, 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 teaspoon fennel seeds, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Prepare two 14-inch pizza crusts according to package directions, or one 15 x 10 inch crust. Alternatively, make your own favorite pizza dough recipe.
- Spread a thin layer of provolone cheese (about 4 oz, shredded) evenly over each pizza crust.
- Top with the sausage mixture, distributing it evenly.
- Sprinkle generously with 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Bake on the lowest rack of the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 35-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
