Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 500° and place the cast iron skillet in the oven while it's preheating.
  • Once the oven reaches 500°, remove the skillet and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then use a paper towel to wipe the oil all over the skillet.
  • Flour a clean work surface (I used a silpat mat), then roll the dough into a circle and transfer it to the oiled skillet. NOTE: If you're using an 8" or 9" cast iron, only use HALF of the ball of pizza dough (save the other half for a second pizza or another use). If you're using a 10" skillet, use the whole ball of dough.
  • Add the marinara, spreading it over the dough, then top it with the mozzarella, parmesan and pepperoni.
  • Place the skillet in the oven (careful, it's hot!) and bake the pizza for 15 minutes.
  • Top the pizza with fresh basil and red pepper flakes. Slice and enjoy!
