Ingredients:
Serves 4
- 8 ounces linguine or spaghetti
- 1 TBS olive oil
- 24 ounce jar marinara (or your favorite sauce type)
- 1 1⁄2 cups water
- 1⁄2 tsp dried oregano
- 1⁄4 tsp dried basil
- 1⁄8 tsp salt
- 1⁄8 tsp pepper
- 1⁄2 cup sliced pepperoni
- 1⁄4 cup mini pepperoni
- 1⁄2 cup mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
Step 1: In a large skillet or pot over medium heat, add olive oil, marinara, water, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and sliced pepperoni (reserve mini pepperonis); stir to combine. Add pasta and bring sauce to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 20-22 minutes, or until pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally (stir every 5 minutes or so to prevent pasta from sticking and ensure it’s covered with sauce).
Step 2: Once cooked, remove from heat, stir, add mozzarella cheese and mini pepperonis. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Step 3: Serve and enjoy!
Notes: Be sure to stir pasta occasionally while cooking to prevent sticking. If pasta seems to be getting dry while cooking, add a bit more water.

The ground rose up to meet me the other day and I need 8 -12 weeks of taking it easy so my ribs get it all back together. This is a perfect recipe for avoiding extra activity like bending over looking for ingredients. It will be easy to do my deep breathing exercises, too, because I know I’ll be taking deep breaths to enjoy the aroma of easy one skillet pizza.
Oh no! I hope you get to feeling better soon.
That looks delicious and a perfect thing to add to our back to school menu rotation.
This is an incredible recipe that I want to make and it sure looks easy to make and I love that it is a one skillet meal. Thanks for sharing another awesome recipe!
Can’t go wrong combining these two favorites- pizza and spaghetti.
Anything in a skillet is DELICIOUS! I’ve baked in one before – so sweet!
This looks really good. I think I would love lots of veggies like mushrooms, peppers and onions. My kids would love extra cheese and turkey pepperoni.
Looks so good! Yummy!
