Heat oven to 450° F. In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine the tomatoes and their juices, the oregano, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer, crushing the tomatoes with a wooden spoon until the sauce thickens, 10 to 15 minutes.
Shape the dough into one 12- to 14-inch round and place on a baking sheet. Cover with the sauce and top with the cheese.
Bake until the crust is golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes.
Transfer to a cutting board and sprinkle with the basil. Slice and divide among individual plates.
As described. I should remember to half-bake the pizza dough prior to topping it so that it's not so doughy in the end.
