Instructions

Prep all ingredients: chop red onion, bell pepper and measure out the parmesan.

Season the Italian sausage with salt and pepper, then braise over medium-high heat until well browned, about 5 minutes.

Add red onion, bell pepper to the pan and cook until softened, 3 minutes.

Stir in parmesan, oregano and cook for another 4 minutes until fragrant.

Meanwhile, prepare the pizza dough according to package instructions and set aside.

Combine everything in the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer for 7 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt, pepper, or a squeeze of citrus if needed.

Serve hot, over pizza dough, garnished with fresh herbs.
