Highly seasoned sausage, used on pizzas (9)

I believe the answer is:

pepperoni

(Other definitions for pepperoni that I've seen before include "spicy stuff" , "Hard, spicy beef and pork sausage" , "something spicy" , "Spicy snacks" , "Spicy Italian sausage" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
