Main Course

Jarred vodka sauce gets doctored with Spiceology Greek Freak Seasoning, then piled with browned Italian sausage, sweet or hot pepper slices, and roasted red peppers for a pan-style pie built for a screaming-hot oven. Ten minutes of active bake time, and it comes out bubbly, golden, and a little smoky.

Greek Freak Spicy Vodka Sauce Pizza

Ingredients

  • Favorite premade dough, or dough of choice, stretched to 15–17 inches

  • 8 oz Italian sausage, casings removed

  • 6 oz jarred vodka sauce

  • 2 Tbsp Spiceology Greek Freak Seasoning, divided

  • 2 Tbsp grated pecorino Romano cheese

  • 6 oz shredded low-moisture mozzarella

  • 3 oz Italian sweet or hot peppers, thinly sliced

  • 3 oz roasted red peppers, sliced

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven (and pizza stone or steel, if using) to 500°F — or up to 520°F for a thicker, crispier pan-style crust. Check your dough's instructions for the temperature that suits it best.

  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking it into crumbles as it browns, 6–8 minutes, until cooked through. Set aside.

  3. Stretch the dough to 15–17 inches in diameter. Stir 1 Tbsp Greek Freak Seasoning into the vodka sauce, then spread it over the dough in an even layer.

  4. Sprinkle with the pecorino Romano, then the remaining 1 Tbsp Greek Freak Seasoning. Top evenly with the mozzarella and cooked sausage, then scatter the pepper slices and roasted red peppers over the top.

  5. Bake according to your dough's instructions — about 8–10 minutes at 520°F, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

  6. Remove from the oven and let cool 2–3 minutes before slicing and serving.
