Step-by-Step Instructions

#1. Prepare the Dough

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
• Gradually add the warm water while stirring until a dough forms.
• Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
• Form the dough into a ball, place it in a lightly oiled bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap.
• Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

#2. Shape the Dough

• Punch down the risen dough and divide it into two equal portions.
• Roll out each portion into a 12-inch (30cm) circle on a lightly floured surface.

#3. Cook the Crust

• Place one dough circle on a microwave-safe plate.
• Cook on high power for 2-3 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned.

#4. Add the Sauce and Cheese

• Spread your desired amount of pizza sauce over the cooked crust.
• Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese.

#5. Add Toppings

• Arrange your favorite toppings over the cheese.

#6. Cook the Pizza

• Place the pizza in the microwave grill and cook on the grill setting for 4-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the toppings are cooked to your liking.

#7. Let Cool and Enjoy

• Remove the pizza from the microwave and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips for Perfection
