Ingredients
1poundfresh pizza doughat room temp for 1 hour (I buy mine at Trader Joe's or make your favorite homemade dough
flour for dusting surface
3tablespoonsolive oil
½cuppizza or marinara sauceor as desired
3cupsmozzarella cheese
15pepperonior as desired
fresh parsleyoptional for garnishing
Instructions
To a floured work surface, add the dough and roll out into a 10 to 12-inch diameter circle. If dough is overly springy and resistant to rolling easily, allow it to rest at room temperature for another 30 minutes or so.
Cook over medium-high heat until the bottom side is lightly browned, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Flip the dough, turn the heat to low, add the pizza sauce (leave a bare 1/2-inch perimeter), evenly top with the cheese, pepperoni, cover skillet with a lid, and cook until the cheese has melted, about 2 to 3 minutes. Alternatively, if you prefer your cheese to be more browned + melted rather than just melted (which is what I prefer), place the skillet underneath the broiler for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese is as browned as desired. If you're broiling, watch it very closely so it doesn't burn.
Optionally garnish with parsley and serve immediately. Pizza is best warm and fresh.
