Lightly grease a large bowl with olive oil. Place the dough ball in the bowl, turning it to coat all sides.
Cover the bowl and set it in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until the dough has visibly doubled in size.
In a cast iron skillet, melt 5 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant.
Immediately remove the pan from the heat. Pour the butter and garlic mixture through a sieve into a bowl to separate the garlic solids from the butter. (If you prefer, you can skip straining and leave the garlic pieces in for extra texture.)
When the skillet is hot, place one rolled-out dough piece into the pan. You should see bubbles forming quickly on the surface.
After about 1 minute, use a spatula to check the underside; if it's browned, flip it over and cook for another 1 minute.
