Classic Pepperoni Pizza (Pizza Seasoning)
Made with garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, chili, cayenne pepper and fragrant herbs, our Mediterranean-inspired pizza seasoning lends vibrant herbal notes and a hint of peppery spice to this pizza. To ensure that the pepperoni bakes up crisp, cook the slices in a dry fry pan over medium heat for about 5 minutes; drain briefly on paper towels and then place the pepperoni on the pizza.
