Instructions

Step 1
1. To make the sauce, heat a small saucepan over medium heat and add the olive oil. When oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and add salt and pepper. Simmer the sauce for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 2
2. Install the Accessory Frame in the bottom level of the unit, then place the Pizza Stone on top.

Step 3
3. Turn left-hand dial to select PIZZA, then use the right-hand dial to select NEAPOLITAN, and set time to 3 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin preheating (preheating will take approx. 25 minutes).

Step 4
4. On a lightly floured work surface, stretch and toss dough by hand into a 10-inch circle about 1/8-inch thick.

Step 5
5. Evenly spread a thin layer of the prepared sauce on the dough, leaving a ½-inch edge for the crust. Then evenly top with sliced mozzarella, basil, sliced tomatoes and olive oil, as desired.

Step 6
6. When unit is preheated and ADD FOOD and PRS STRT is displayed, open door, slide a floured Pizza Peel under the pizza and transfer to the hot stone. Close door, select START/STOP, and cook for 3 minutes. If more time is necessary or a darker pizza is desired, increase the time using the right-hand dial.

Step 7
7. When cooking is complete, open door and remove pizza with peel. Let rest for 5 minutes before drizzling with olive oil, cutting and serving.
