Shape the dough, make scales out of pepperoni slices, and voilà -- something fishy for dinner.

Perfect Pizza Dough
Olive oil for coating
1 cup tomato sauce
2 1/4 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1 6-oz. package sliced pepperoni
3 black olives, pitted

1. Punch down the risen dough, knead it a few times and divide it into thirds.
2. Oil a baking sheet and set aside. Heat the oven to 450 degrees.
3. For each fish, roll one third of dough into an oval about 12 inches long and 8 inches wide and place it on a baking sheet. About 2 inches from one end, pinch in the dough to create a tail.
4. Spread a third of the sauce on the "fish," leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with a third of the cheese. Vertically overlap pepperoni slices to make scales (you'll need about 20 slices per fish) and add an olive eye. Bake 15 minutes, or until the underside of the crust is golden brown. Makes 3 pizza fish.
