Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  2. 2

    Add Olive Oil

    Brush the rolled-out dough with olive oil to create a crispy crust.

  3. 3

    Spread the Sauce

    Spread an even layer of marinara sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Toppings

    Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, then add your choice of toppings such as pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, red onion, and black olives.

  5. 5

    Bake the Menucci

    Place the pizza on a baking sheet or pizza stone and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then garnish with fresh basil and crushed red pepper to taste before slicing and serving.
