Ingredients

  • 1 package refrigerated pizza dough (store bought or homemade)
  • Flour (For rolling out pizza dough)
  • Olive Oil (For Pizza)
  • Vegetable Oil (For Grill)
  • 3/4 cup pizza sauce (store bought or homemade)
  • 1-1/2 cups Mozzarella Cheese, shredded (approximately)

Ideas For Toppings (Choose Your Favorites)

  • sliced onions
  • chopped bell peppers
  • sliced mushrooms
  • black olives, chopped
  • Arugula
  • Pepperoni
  • Italian Sausage
  • Diced Chicken
  • Ham or Bacon

Instructions

  • Prepare the pizza sauce and slice or chop all toppings, set aside.
  • Roll out pizza dough into a thin rectangle using a small dusting of flour so the dough doesn’t stick. (Rectangular Shape makes it a little easier to handle.) Place pizza dough on large baking sheet or pizza paddle.
  • Heat grill to medium-high heat. Coat grates of grill with vegetable oil using a folded paper towel.
  • Slide pizza dough onto heated grates. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bottom is lightly brown. Flip pizza over and brush lightly with olive oil.
  • Spread on pizza sauce and top with mozzarella cheese and toppings of your choice. Close the lid and grill for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted and toppings are lightly browned.
  • Remove from grill and transfer to cutting board. Add fresh herbs and parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately
