Preheat and prepare the dough, sheet, and toppings
Position an oven rack in the lower third and preheat the oven to 475°F. Coat the baking sheet with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. Lightly flour a clean counter, place the dough on it, cover with an inverted bowl, and let it rest for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the meatballs crosswise into 1/2-inch slices, shred the mozzarella, finely grate the Parmesan, and tear the basil into small pieces.
Wash your hands and work surface after handling the dough and flour, and do not taste uncooked dough.
