Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Oil a deep-dish pan and press dough up the sides to form a tall crust.
Step 2: Layer slices of mozzarella directly on the dough (prevents soggy crust). Scatter raw sausage pieces evenly.
Step 3: Stir tomatoes with oregano, salt, and pepper; spoon over sausage. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle Parmesan.
Step 4: Bake 25–30 minutes until crust is golden at the edges and the center registers ~200°F (93°C). Rest 10 minutes before slicing.
