Recipe

Recreate the Fazoli’s Pizza slice in a delicious manner with the obvious step of preparing the dough.

Preparing the Dough

In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar and yeast. Stir them well and allow it to rest for at least 5 mins to make it more frothy. When the foam appears, it means that the yeast is active and ready to use. If the yeast is not properly active, the rest recipe would not be a success.

Mixing the Dough:

Now, combine flour and salt in a large bowl, and add yeast mixture/ Add olive oil, and mix until the soft dough forms. 

Take the dough on a lightly floured surface, and knead for at least 8 mins. Make the dough smooth and elastic. 

Dough Rise

Dough needs to rise properly. Place the dough in a light oiled bowel. Let it rise in a warm area for at least an hour. Wait, until it is double in size.

Roll out the Dough

Preheat your oven already. Now, gently punch down the dough and roll out on the lightly floured surface. Roll in a rectangular circle about ¼ inch thick. Once done, transfer it onto a baking dish having a greased baking sheet.

Sauce & Cheese

Within a bowl, take tomato sauce, garlic powder, oregano, sugar, salt and pepper. Mix them well and spread over the dough evenly only leaving the small border around the edges. Take mozzarella cheese, and generously sprinkle over it. Add parmesan cheese with additional toppings as desired. 

Bake the Pizza

Your pizza is all ready to get baked. Place it inside the preheated oven for at least 12-15 min until it becomes golden brown, and the cheese starts melting and bubbly. 

Slice & Serve

Let the pizza cool, and slightly slice them into onerous pieces. Serve it hot and enjoy every bit of this Fazoli’s style pizza slice.
