Position an oven rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 500°F (or as high as it will go). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.

On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle. If it shrinks back, let it rest for several minutes, then try again.

If cooking on a pizza stone, set a sheet of broiler-safe parchment paper on the back of a flat baking sheet and transfer the dough to it. If not using a pizza stone, lightly dust a regular baking sheet with flour or cornmeal and place the shaped dough in the center.

Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a 3/4-inch border. Top evenly with mozzarella, pepperoni, and goat cheese and red onion (if using).

Carefully transfer the pizza to the stone or place it directly in the oven on the baking sheet.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the crust is golden and slightly blistered, rotating halfway through.

Transfer to a cutting board and drizzle with hot honey. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, basil, and arugula (if using). Let cool a few minutes, then slice and enjoy.
