    American Italian

Ingredients

1 pound pizza dough

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 cup ricotta cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil leaves

Directions

Place a baking stone on the middle shelf of the oven and preheat on the highest setting for at least 1 hour. Shape the dough ball using the toss-and-spin method, stretching it to a diameter of about 12 inches. The dough should be about 1/4 inch thick and slightly thicker toward the edge. Transfer the dough to a peel or an inverted sheet pan that has been dusted with flour.
