Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
Step 2
Add the warm water and one tablespoon of olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Step 5
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Step 6
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into two equal pieces.
Step 7
Roll out one dough piece on a floured surface until you have a 12-inch circle.
Step 8
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a parchment paper for easy handling.
Step 9
Spread half of the spicy tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 10
Evenly distribute half of the mozzarella slices over the sauce.
Step 11
Top with half of the red bell pepper slices, red onion, kalamata olives, and jalapeño slices.
Step 12
Sprinkle half of the chili flakes over the toppings.
Step 13
Carefully transfer the pizza, along with the parchment paper, onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Step 14
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is crispy and the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Step 15
While the first pizza bakes, prepare the second pizza using the remaining ingredients.
Step 16
Garnish each baked pizza with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Step 17
Slice and serve hot.
