It’s July and I have been on a grilling kick lately. I’m beginning to think that I can grill just about anything at this point ~ especially after making grilled pizzas! My husband and I even think that our grilled pizzas taste better than our homemade oven pizza.
Ingredients
1 lb of dough (I buy mine already made from the grocery store – I am not the best dough maker at this time!)
1/2 cup basil torn up
Flour
Pizza sauce or spaghetti pomodoro sauce
EVOO
5 garlic cloves crushed
Toppings: pepperoni, mushrooms, and fresh mozzarella (this is what I put on my pizza)
Put EVOO on a paper towel or rag and rub the grill grates with it and set the grill to medium-high. While the grill is heating up take your dough and divide into three even sections. Roll out each of the 3 parts of dough on a floured counter (I put EVOO on my rolling pin to help roll out the dough). Don’t worry about the shape of your dough – mine are all uneven and RUSTIC looking. Drizzle EVOO on your rolled out dough and sprinkle crushed garlic on top.
Once the grill is ready to go take your toppings, sauce, and dough out to the grill. Lay the dough gently on the grill and put your sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms, and basil on it. Let it cook for about 5 minutes or until the pizza looks a little blackened. Dont worry if your pizza is a little blackened – I personally think it adds a smokey flavor to it.
Enjoy!!
