Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the store-bought pizza dough onto the parchment paper into a large rectangle, about 12 x 16 inches.
Evenly spread the shredded mozzarella cheese across the entire surface of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Layer the sliced pepperoni over the cheese, ensuring even coverage.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning over the pepperoni and cheese for added flavor.
Starting at one of the longer edges, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Pinch the seam and the ends to seal the stromboli.
Brush the top of the stromboli with olive oil to help it bake up golden brown.
Place the stromboli seam-side down on the baking sheet and use a sharp knife to make 4-5 shallow slashes across the top to vent steam.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the stromboli from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into portions.
Serve with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
