  • YIELD : 12 inch pizza
  • SKILL LEVEL : Beginner
  • COST : $
  • PREP TIME : 20 minutes
  • GRILLING TIME : 15 minutes
INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 each Store Bought Pizza Dough Ball
  • 1 tbsp Canola Oil
  • 2/3 cup BBQ Sauce of Choice
  • 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup Chicken Breast, cooked and chopped
  • 1/4 cup Red Onion, diced
GAS/CHARCOAL INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Take the dough out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour. Once the dough has come to room temperature, lightly flour a countertop and flatten the dough into a circle using your hands.
  2. Lightly flour the top of the dough and use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a circle, stretching and rotating as you go. If your dough doesn't form a perfect circle, call it "rustic" and don't worry about it.
  3. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured cookie sheet or pizza paddle. Using a fork or a knife, poke holes in the dough to help prevent bubbles while it cooks.
  4. Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat, 350 - 450 degrees F.
  5. Brush stretched pizza dough with oil. Carefully flip the dough directly onto the grate and cook until the bottom of the dough begins to set and develops grills marks, about 3 - 4 minutes.
  6. Using a spatula, remove dough from the grill and place grill side up on a cookie sheet or pizza paddle.
  7. Spread the BBQ sauce in a thin, even layer across the cooked side of the pizza dough. Put chopped chicken, cheese and red onions on pizza.
  8. Carefully return the pizza to the grill, cover the grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes to melt the cheese and cook the dough all the way through.
  9. Using a spatula or tongs, remove pizza from the grill. Allow the pizza to cool for 5 minutes. Slice and serve warm.
