Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.

On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer the rolled dough to a baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the tomato sauce.

Step 7

Scatter the sliced red and yellow bell peppers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and jalapeño slices over the cheese.

Step 8

Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
