Tomato and Olive Foccacia
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound package pizza dough
- 1 cup seeded tomatoes, chopped and drained
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oregano
- 2 to 3 tablespoons oil-cured olives halved and pitted
- 1 clove garlic, sliced into paper-thin shreds
- On a baking pan spread olive oil.
- Press the pizza dough into the pan until the dough fills pan completely.
- Cover the dough with a piece of oiled plastic wrap (oiled side down) and allow it to rise, until doubled, up to 1 hour.
- Scatter tomatoes on risen focaccia.
- Sprinkle with salt; pepper; oregano; olives and garlic.
- Set a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees.
- Bake the focaccia for about 25 minutes, or until deep golden.
- Lift the side of the focaccia with a spatula or pancake turner and check the bottom about halfway through baking time.
- If it is getting too dark, slide the pan onto another pan to insulate the bottom.
- To serve immediately, slide the focaccia from the pan to a cutting board.
- If it will be served later, slide it off the pan onto a rack to cool.
