Pizza Base

Method

Prepare Pizza Dough

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Once the yeast is activated, add it along with the olive oil to the flour mixture.

  3. 3

    Knead Dough

    Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Form it into a ball.

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Assemble Pizza

  1. 5

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure it is hot for baking.

  2. 6

    Prepare Pizza Base

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into your desired shape and thickness.

  3. 7

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Spread the parmesan sauce evenly over the base. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top.

  4. 8

    Add Toppings

    Layer the cooked chicken or gyro meat, fresh spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, and finish with grated parmesan cheese.

  5. 9

    Drizzle Olive Oil

    Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the toppings for added flavor.

  6. 10

    Bake Pizza

    Carefully place the assembled pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
