Step 1

To make dough, add water, sugar, salt, and yeast to a bowl and stir.  Let sit for 5 minutes so yeast dissolves and starts to foam.  Add flour and stir well to combine.

Step 2

Use a hand dipped in water to vigorously work the dough until it forms a ball.  Let the dough rest for a few minutes and then continue to work it until it is really soft and pliable, about 5-6 minutes of mixing.

Step 3

Coat the dough with olive oil and store it in a plastic bag.  Let it rise at room temp for an hour, then punch it down, reshape it into a ball, and store it in the fridge for at least 2 hours.  Remove it an hour before you intend to make pizza.

Step 4

Prepare all your ingredients: brown sausage, chop basil and scallions, and grate cheese.

Step 5

Stir together sauce ingredients and adjust to your tastes.

Step 6

Roll dough out into a large circle and place it in the center of your cold skillet.  Trim off excess dough, leaving about a inch of dough up the side of the skillet.  Use your fingers to fold the dough over itself, making a crust.

Step 7

Add sauce, sausage, scallions, and cheese to pizza.

Step 8

Cook the pizza ON THE STOVETOP over high heat for 3-4 minutes to rapidly heat the pan up.

Step 9

Move the pizza to a 450 degree oven until the pizza finishes cooking, about 18 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the pizza and use a spatula to carefully slide the pizza out of the skillet.

Step 11

Let it cool, slice it up, and serve it!
