• 5 leaves fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°C (482°F) or as high as it will go. If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the pizza dough ball to your desired thickness, approximately 12 inches in diameter for a thin crust.

Step 3

Transfer the rolled dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.

Step 4

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.

Step 5

Tear the mozzarella cheese into small pieces and distribute it evenly over the tomato sauce.

Step 6

Slice the hot salami and arrange the slices on top of the mozzarella cheese.

Step 7

Slice the chili peppers thinly and scatter them over the pizza for heat, adjusting the amount to your spicy preference.

Step 8

Drizzle the olive oil over the top of the pizza, then sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes for added spice.

Step 9

Using a pizza peel, carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

Step 10

Bake the pizza for about 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before sprinkling fresh basil leaves on top.

Step 12

Slice and serve hot, enjoying the spicy flavors of the Pizza Diavolo.
