When cooked on the grill, homemade pizza becomes a gourmet affair. This version resembles a margherita pizza with fresh tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella.
Ingredients
- 1 lb. fresh pizza dough
- 6 oz. fresh mozzarella cheese
- 4 plum tomatoes
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
- 1/2 c. sliced fresh basil leaves
- 1 tbsp. Extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare outdoor grill for covered, direct grilling on medium-low.
- Cut dough into 4 equal pieces. On one end of oiled cookie sheet, with fingertips, spread and flatten 1 piece of dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. (Edge does not need to be even.) On same cookie sheet, repeat with another piece of dough. Repeat with a second oiled cookie sheet and remaining dough.
- Place all 4 pieces of dough, oiled side down, on hot grill grate. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until grill marks appear on underside (dough will stiffen and puff).
- With tongs, turn crusts over. Working quickly, arrange one-fourth of mozzarella, one-fourth of tomatoes, salt, and pepper on each crust. Cover grill and cook pizzas 3 to 4 minutes longer or until undersides are evenly browned and cooked through.
- Transfer to cutting board; sprinkle tops of pizzas with basil, and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Cut into wedges. Makes 4 servings.
