-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound frozen bread dough -- thawed

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/2 cup chopped pitted Kalamata olives

1/2 cup chopped pitted Sicilian olives

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

 

Preheat the oven to 450F. Using your fingertips or the heels of

your hands, spread the dough to cover the bottom of a 12- to

14-inch pizza pan that has been coated with nonstick cooking

spray. Push the dough out to the edge of the pan, forming a rim.

With a fork, prick the dough 15 to 20 times. Brush with the oil.

Sprinkle the olives over the top of the dough, then top with the

cheese and oregano. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the

focaccia is crisp and brown. Cut i half, then cut each half into 6
