By using the pizza dough recipe suggested, and cooking the pizza on a
grill, you'll be able to recreate the flavor of a pizza cooked on a
wood burning stove as they do in Italy.
Makes 4 Individual Pizzas
Ingredients
- 4 Individual Pizza Dough Balls - Defrosted
- Cups Canned Plum Tomatoes
- 3/4 Cup Fresh Chopped Basil
- 2 Cup Olive Oil
- Tablespoons Minced Garlic
- 1 1/2 Cups Grated Romano Cheese
- 1 1/2 Cups Shredded Mozzarella or Fontina Cheese
- 3 Tablespoons Fresh, Chopped Parsley
Preparation
Follow Instructions for Grilled Pizza, removing the pizzas from the grill after grilling 30 seconds on the second side. In a bowl, mix tomatoes, basil, 1/4 cup oil and the garlic. In a separate bowl, mix the two cheeses. Spread some cheese mixture over each pizza, then dollop each with the tomato mixture. Do not spread. Sprinkle each with parsley, place back on the grill. Close the lid and cook just till cheese is melted, about another minute. Serve immediately, using remaining oil to drizzle over top, as desired.
Tip: I use a bakers peel dusted with cornmeal to easily slip the pizza dough onto the grill, as well as turn it over.
