Homemade Pepperoni Pizza Recipe: Zesty Chili Edition – Must-Try Steps for a Spicy Slice

This version takes a classic pepperoni pizza and turns up the heat with Dua Belibis Chili and Tomato Sauce. The bold sauce, paired with gooey cheese and crisp pepperoni, makes every bite exciting. Whether you like it mild or extra spicy, this recipe gives you the perfect base to customize.

1. Gather Your Essential Ingredients for Zesty Pepperoni Pizza

Get your Dua Belibis Chili and Tomato Sauce for the spicy kick. Dried oregano and basil will make your tomato sauce better. Use a little semolina flour to make your crust crispy. You need these:

• 250g bread flour or high protein flour

• 5g salt, 5g instant yeast, 15g sugar

• 130ml warm water, 20ml olive oil

• Dua Belibis Chili and Tomato Sauce (or any spicy pizza sauce you like)

• Mozzarella cheese, shredded

• Slices of pepperoni

• Dried oregano and basil

Make sure you have all your things ready before you begin. Good preparation helps make the pizza come out well and you can enjoy making it more.

2. Master the Perfect Homemade Pizza Dough

1. Mix flour, salt, yeast, and sugar in a bowl.

2. Add warm water and olive oil, stirring until a sticky dough forms.

3. Knead for about 8 minutes until smooth and stretchy.

4. Cover and let rise for 50 minutes, or until doubled in size.

Once ready, sprinkle semolina on your pan, stretch the dough to fit, and poke it lightly with a fork to prevent bubbles. This step sets the stage for a chewy, golden crust.

3. Create a Flavorful Dua Belibis Chili and Tomato Sauce Base

Spread Dua Belibis Chili and Tomato Sauce over the stretched dough, leaving a border for the crust. The sauce blends sweet tomato flavor with chili heat, no extra seasoning needed, though a dash of garlic powder or tomato paste can deepen the flavor if you like.

4. Assemble the Ultimate Spicy Pepperoni Pizza Toppings

• Sprinkle dried oregano and basil over the sauce.

• Cover generously with shredded mozzarella.

• Add pepperoni slices evenly so they crisp up without overlapping.

• Optional: parmesan before baking, red pepper flakes after baking, or fresh oregano as garnish.

Here’s a quick table for topping assembly:

Topping	Tips for Use
Mozzarella cheese	Generously cover the entire sauced base
Pepperoni slices	Distribute evenly, avoid overlap
Dried oregano & basil	Sprinkle lightly over sauce and cheese
Parmesan cheese	Add before baking for extra richness
Red pepper flakes	Use for extra heat after baking
Fresh oregano	Garnish after baking for bright flavor

Now it’s time to bake your creation.

5. Bake for a Crispy Crust and Bubbling Cheese

Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F). Bake your pizza for about 15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling. For crispier pepperoni, broil for the last minute. Let it rest a few minutes before slicing so the cheese sets.

Spice It Up with Hot Honey, Extra Herbs, or Gourmet Additions

Taking your homemade pepperoni pizza up a notch can be simple. Here are some ways to make the best pepperoni pizza stand out at home:

• Drizzle hot honey on top when you finish baking for a mix of sweet and spicy flavors.

• Use fresh oregano or basil just before you serve it, so you get that fresh herbal aroma.

• Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the mozzarella. This brings a deep, nutty taste.

• Add thin slices of red onion, jalapeño, or some roasted bell peppers to get extra color and have more flavor.

• Mix different cheeses, like provolone or fontina, to make your homemade pepperoni pizza feel fancy.

• After baking, add a splash of olive oil or a handful of arugula to get that nice restaurant-style touch.

With these tips, your pepperoni pizza will always taste good and can turn any night into a fun adventure for flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the secret to getting crispy pepperoni and melted cheese at home?

A hot oven is the first thing you need for a crispy crust. Be sure to preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone before you start. Lay out the pepperoni slices so they do not sit on top of each other. Bake the pizza until the mozzarella cheese on top is nice and bubbly. It should turn golden, too. You can poke the pizza dough with a fork. This helps keep it from getting soggy.

Can I use store-bought dough or sauce for this recipe?

Yes, you can use pizza dough and pizza sauce from the grocery store to make homemade pizza fast. It’s good to pick a pizza dough that has bread flour. This will help make the crust chewy. Find pizza sauce that has plenty of tomato paste, as this gives the pizza flavor. Add more spice or cheese if you like.

How do I prevent my pizza crust from getting soggy?

To keep your pizza crust from getting soft, bake your pizza on a hot baking sheet. Use a little semolina or brush a bit of olive oil on the sheet before you put the pizza dough on. After you stretch out the pizza dough, poke it with a fork. This helps it cook well. Don’t put too much sauce or cheese on top. At the end, add some parmesan cheese to make the crust extra crisp.
