Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Roll out the pizza dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch (6 mm) and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
2
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
3
Add the sliced jalapenos to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until they are softened and slightly caramelized.
4
Spread the cooked sausage and jalapeno mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a 1/2 inch (1 cm) border around the edges.
5
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the pizza and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
6
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
