How to prepare
1
Place a rack in the lower-middle position and heat the oven to 230°C. Put a heavy baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven as it preheats for a crisper underside.
2
Stir the melted butter, minced garlic, oregano, and half of the salt in a small bowl. Leave it for 5 minutes so the garlic perfumes the butter.
3
On a lightly floured sheet of parchment, stretch the room-temperature dough into a roughly 25 by 35 cm rectangle. Press it gently with your fingertips rather than rolling out all the air, then transfer the parchment and dough to the hot baking sheet.
4
Brush the garlic butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1 cm border. Scatter the mozzarella and cheddar over the surface, then finish with the remaining salt and sliced green onion.
5
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, rotating once, until the cheese is fully melted and blistered in spots and the exposed edges are deep golden brown.

Cool on the sheet for 3 minutes, then cut the slab lengthwise into 4 strips and crosswise into 3 sections to make 12 easy-to-share fingers. Serve warm with dipping sauce.

Why this recipe works
A thin layer of garlic butter seasons the dough all the way to its crisp edges, while mozzarella provides stretch and cheddar adds a sharper, distinctly savory finish.
Storage and reheating
How to store it
Refrigerate cooled leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Separate layers with parchment if stacking.
How to reheat it
Reheat on a baking sheet at 190°C for 6 to 8 minutes, until the base is hot and the cheese is lively again. Avoid microwaving if possible because it softens the crust.
