This pizza is also known as sfincione , focaccia, thick crust, deep dish or pan pizza

Sicilian pizza is a very versatile pizza that goes by many different names, depending on the region, city, or country where it is made. Although the name and toppings can vary considerably, the basics remain the same.

These pizzas have a thicker, softer, and more bread-like texture than Neapolitan, Roman, or New York-style pizza. They are cooked in a pan or baking sheet heavily coated with olive oil. As the oil heats up in the oven, it fries the pizza base, making it incredibly crispy and delicious.
