Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cook until softened.
Add bell pepper and half the pepperoni slices. Cook for 3 minutes.
Stir in marinara sauce and uncooked rotini. Add water to just cover the pasta. Mix well.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once pasta is al dente and liquid mostly absorbed, sprinkle mozzarella on top. Add remaining pepperoni and olives.
Cover and let the cheese melt for 2–3 minutes. Finish with Italian seasoning and cracked pepper.
Serve warm directly from the pot.
