How To Make chicago style deep dish pizza

2Dissolve yeast and 1/4 teaspoon sugar in warm water. Set aside for 5 minutes. In food processor container with dough blade, add flour and salt. Heat water and oil to 110*-115*F. Pour yeast mixture over flour in container. Process while pouring water and oil through feed tube. Once a dough ball forms, process for 60 seconds until dough cleans the sides of the container. Remove dough and cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Let rest 15 minutes. On lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 16" circle. Place in oiled 14" round deep dish pizza pan, pushing dough halfway up sides of pan. Cover; let rise in warm place until puffy, about 15 minutes. Spread pizza sauce over dough. Sprinkle sausage over sauce; then arrange mushrooms, green pepper and onion over sausage. Sprinkle cheese on top. Bake at 425* for 20 to 25 minutes until edge is crisp and golden brown and cheese is melted.

3Tip: This recipe has been developed for a 14" round deep dish pizza pan. The pizza could also be baked in a 13x9x2" cake pan. Roll dough to a 15x11" rectangle. Baking time may be slightly less. I personally like to divide the dough in half and pat out 2) 12" round pizza's and add 1 or 2 other kinds of cheese. Experiment and have fun. :)
