Yield:

6 servings

Ingredients

1 teaspoon active dry yeast

3 teaspoons sugar, divided

¾ cup warm water (100°F)

2 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons salted butter, melted

1 tablespoon chopped Italian parsley, for garnish

Directions

In a medium bowl combine yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar; stir in water. Let stand for 10 minutes.
In a large bowl combine flour, remaining 2 teaspoons of sugar and salt. Stir in yogurt, oil and yeast mixture. When dough is about to come together, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough until almost smooth (2 to 3 minutes total). Shape dough into a ball. Place in a large, lightly greased bowl; turn once to grease surface of dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in size (30 minutes).
Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a log; cut log into 6 portions. Roll one dough portion to a ⅛- to ¼-inch-thick oval. Add to hot skillet; cook over medium heat for 2 minutes or until air bubbles appear on top. Turn over and cook for 2 minutes more or until golden. Remove from skillet and brush with melted butter. Repeat with remaining dough portions.
If desired, place naan on a rimmed baking pan and keep warm in a 200°F. oven. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
