Dough for one 12-inch pizza, made in a bread machine (see related recipe at left)151grams

mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced 2servings

Extra-virgin olive oil for brushing 1Tb

chopped fresh oregano 6

plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced, or 1/4 cup tomato sauce 1

red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices 2servings

Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste 113grams

spicy Italian sausage, removed from casing and crumbled into small pieces

Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio

Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio are my top picks for Italian. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. The Piccini Chianti Classico with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 10 dollars per bottle.
