I love a faux-fancy dish -- you know, the ones that look like you've put in tons of effort, but are in fact, so easy!?
So, here's the story: I had pizza dough in the fridge but didn't want pizza -- so I whipped up these deeeeeliicious Garlic Parm Pizza Knots using store-bought Pizza Dough.
 
I most certainly didn't invent this -- but I searched a few recipes and then made it my own. And had I known you wanted the recipe, I would have done a video.
Oh well.
Here's what I did:
- Preheat oven to 400.
 - Roll out pizza dough and cut into strips (I got 12).
 - Wrap the strip around your hand and make a knot.
 - Place knots onto a parchment-lined tray and gently brush with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
 - Bake for 12-15 min or until lightly golden.
 - Meanwhile, heat olive oil and butter in a pan. I didn't measure, but about 3 swirls in a big pan. And a chunk of butter -- a couple tbsps.
 - Add 3-4 cloves of minced garlic to low heat. DO NOT LET GARLIC BROWN. We're just looking for aroma here.
 - Add oregano.
 - As the EVOO/butter mix starts to simmer, shut off the heat.
 - When the knots are done baking, place them into the pan, ensuring all sides are coated.
 - Sprinkle with real Parmeggiano Reggiano.
 - Enjoy!
 
What's your fave thing to do with pizza dough -- other than make pizza!?
