Instructions
- 1
Place a baking sheet or pizza stone on the center rack and preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Allow at least 30 minutes for the stone or pan to fully heat — this is what gives the crust a crisp underside.

Make the crispy garlic: heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the thinly sliced garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for 3–5 minutes until the slices are pale golden and just beginning to crisp at the edges — watch closely, as they go from golden to burnt quickly. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic chips to a paper-towel-lined plate. Reserve the garlic-infused oil in the pan.
