# Étapes de préparation:

01 - Blend jalapeno, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, cumin, olive oil, and salt in a small food processor. Once smooth and chopped, fold in sour cream and pulse lightly to keep it a bit runny.
02 - Stir together the tandoori spice and marinara sauce. Mix well until it's fully combined.
03 - Dice onions, olives, and bell peppers. Slice jalapenos, drain corn, and shred the cheese blend.
04 - Stick your cast iron pan inside the oven. Turn the heat to 475°F (245°C) and let it warm up for about 10 minutes to give your pizza that perfect crisp.
05 - While waiting on the preheated skillet, stretch out your dough into a circular shape that matches the skillet size.
06 - Carefully pull the skillet out of the oven and brush a thin layer of olive oil over it. Lay the dough onto the hot pan—it might sizzle. Spread around 1/4 cup of tandoori sauce across, then scatter your veggies, jalapenos, and corn over the top before sprinkling on the cheese.
07 - Return the pan to the oven and let the pizza bake for 8-12 minutes. Start checking at the 8-minute mark since oven times vary.
08 - Take the pizza out when the cheese is gooey and the edges are golden. Sprinkle some cilantro and drizzle the jalapeno cream sauce before serving.
