Print
Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 536kcal
Equipment
- baking sheet or cast iron skillet
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough (see recipe in menu) or use store bought dough
- 1 tsp Extra-virgin olive oil plus more as needed
- 2 cups Marinara sauce see recipe or use store bought (best if sauce is made in advance and cold prior to using)
- 2 tsp Parmesan cheese
- 3 oz Mozzarella cheese sliced thin (use more if needed)
- 4 oz Ground Italian sausage
- 1 tsp Red pepper flakes optional
- 1/4 cup Fresh basil
Instructions
- Allow the dough to sit out prior to using so it isnt cold.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Very lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil. (A 1/4 sized baking sheet will work best if you have one, otherwise use a 1/2 sized baking sheet only greasing one half of it).
- Place the dough into the baking sheet, drizzle a small amount of olive oil on top, and gently stretch it into a rectangle onto the greased area. (try not to flatten or press dough down too much or wont rise properly, this is a thicker crust pizza)
- Generously spread a layer of sauce on the dough, leaving about a 1/2 inch of dough without sauce around the edge. Evenly spread the parmesan cheese, mozzarella and small dollops of sausage over the sauce.(You may not need all the sauce, use your discretion)
- Bake the pizza in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake until the crust is golden brown as well as the bottom and the cheese is melted approximately 10 to 15 minutes more until the crust is golden brown.
- Let the pizza sit for 2-3 minutes before cutting. Drizzle with oil, parmesan, and red pepper flakes if desired. Top with fresh basil.
- Cut into squares and serve.
