Method 8
- 01
Make the pizza dough: Follow the Best Pizza Dough recipe to prepare the dough. (This takes about 15 minutes to make and 45 minutes to rest.)
- 02
Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 500°F. OR preheat your pizza oven (here’s the pizza oven we use ).
- 03
Make the pizza sauce: Make the Easy Pizza Sauce .
- 04
Prepare the toppings: Thinly slice the garlic clove. Chop the oregano leaves.
- 05
Bake the pizza: When the oven is ready, dust a pizza peel with cornmeal or semolina flour. (If you don’t have a pizza peel, you can use a rimless baking sheet or the back of a rimmed baking sheet. But a pizza peel is well worth the investment!) Stretch the dough into a circle; see How to Stretch Pizza Dough for instructions. Then gently place the dough onto the pizza peel.
- 06
Spread the pizza sauce over the dough using the back of a spoon to create a thin layer. Top with thinly sliced garlic.
- 07
Use the pizza peel to carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone. Bake the pizza until the cheese and crust are nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes in the oven (or 1 minute in a pizza oven).
- 08
Remove from the oven. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, a few pinches of kosher salt , and the fresh oreagno. Slice into pieces and serve immediately.
