Copycat Garlic Twists (Domino’s style)
An American snack built around pizza dough and butter — on the table in 30 minutes. Each serving lands at 220 calories with 10g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. Naturally vegetarian, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough
- 1.5 tbsp Butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 3 tbsp Parmesan
- 1 tsp Dried parsley
- 3/4 cup Marinara
Steps
- Cut the dough into 8 ropes about 8 inches long, then twist each one once down its length — a single twist bakes up chewy instead of doughy.
- Let the twists rest 10 minutes while the oven hits 475°F; rested dough springs less and bakes more evenly.
- Melt the butter gently with the minced garlic just until fragrant, about 1 minute — browned garlic turns bitter and there is no hiding it.
- Bake the twists 10 minutes, then brush them twice with the garlic butter while they are screaming hot so it soaks in rather than sitting on top.
- Shower with parmesan and parsley, and serve with warm marinara for dunking.
