Ingredients List:

1 garlic clove, crushed and chopped fine
1 tbsp of olive oil
¼ tsp dried and crumbled oregano
1 pinch of dries and crushed hot red pepper flakes
A bit of salt to taste
Pizza dough for a nine inch pizza
1 tbsp flour

Directions:

45 minutes before you begin baking your pizza you will want to put a pizza stone in your oven on the lowest rack and preheat the oven to 500 to 550 degrees. It's important that you use a pizza stone with this recipe in order to get the best tasting pizza possible.

You will want to take out a small bowl and mix the oil, oregano, salt, and red pepper flakes until all the ingredients are mixed together well. Then you will put your dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat the dough out with your fingers. If the dough gets sticky then add a bit more flour.

Now you will want to lightly flour your flat edge pizza pan and place your dough directly on it. Now you will top the pizza dough with your oil mixture and spread it all around the dough. You will want to make sure that you don't go all the way to the edge of the pizza; about a half an inch away from the edge is perfect.

The final step will be for you to slide your pizza carefully onto the pizza stone and bake your pizza in the oven for about 6 to 8 minutes or until you see the crust become crisp and browned. Once the pizza is done, you will remove it from the oven and let it set for about 3 minutes. Then you are going to cut it into slices and serve it.
