A delicious homemade Chicago-style deep dish pizza with a rich tomato sauce, savory sausage, and gooey cheese.
Combine the lukewarm water, sugar, and yeast in a mixing bowl and let it sit until foamy.
Ensure the water is not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.
Add the flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Mix until the dough is just combined to avoid overworking it.
Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, then let it rise in a greased bowl covered with a damp cloth.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for the best results.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and prepare your pizza pan by greasing it lightly.
Preheating ensures even cooking of the pizza.
Roll out the dough and press it into the pizza pan, forming a crust up the sides.
Ensure the crust is even for uniform baking.
Layer the mozzarella cheese on the bottom of the crust, followed by the sausage and crushed tomatoes.
Spread the toppings evenly for a balanced flavor.
Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top and bake the pizza in the oven for 30-35 minutes.
Check the pizza halfway through to ensure it doesn't overcook.
Let the pizza cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Cooling helps the toppings set for easier slicing.
