Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients.

2. 2

   Remove pizza dough from refrigerator 20 minutes before making pizza. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

3. 3

   Spray a metal 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Place pizza dough in baking pan and stretch to reach corners. If dough is hard to stretch and springs back, place a clean kitchen towel over baking pan and let dough relax for 10 minutes until pliable enough to stretch.

4. 4

   Spread Garlic Spread-Dip evenly over dough, edge to edge, with a spoon or small offset spatula. Dollop with Bomba Hot Pepper Sauce, and spread evenly over Garlic Spread-Dip.

5. 5

   Place 1/2 of the salami and 1/2 of the pepperoni over the sauces; sprinkle with 3/4 cup mozzarella. Top with remaining salami and pepperoni. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.

6. 6

   With a small spoon, dollop pesto, about 1/2 teaspoon at a time, over pizza.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven until dough has puffed, is golden brown around edges and bottom, and cheese has melted, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating pan back to front halfway through.

8. 8

   Using a large spatula, remove from the oven and carefully transfer to a cutting board. Sprinkle with basil leaves, slice, and serve!
