New York Pepperoni Slice

The most popular pizza topping in America: classic thin-crust New York style pizza loaded with spicy, "cup-and-char" pepperoni.

Cuisine: United States

Ingredients

• NY-style thin dough
• 1 cup pizza sauce

• 100g thin-sliced pepperoni
• Red pepper flakes
• Garlic powder

Instructions

1. Stretch dough thin on a floured surface.
2. Apply sauce and cheese evenly.
