Ingredients: |
Ingredients: ¼ cup pizza sauce (we like Rao's brand)
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1 (15 oz) pre-made and pre-rolled pizza dough, **room temp
2-3 Tbsp olive oil
1 large tomato, sliced thin
6 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
Fresh basil, to taste
In small bowl, whisk together pizza sauce & fresh garlic. Set aside.
Line up ingredients near grill as everything will move very quickly once you get going. Heat grill to 400°. Brush grill grates with olive oil. Brush one side of pizza dough with olive oil; carefully place greased side of dough onto grill.
Turn down heat to 350º close lid on grill. Check every few min until bottom is light golden brown. If bottom is cooking faster on one side of dough, just spin dough to cook other side over hotter side of grill, to even out. When crust is lightly browned on bottom, brush top of crust with olive oil; flip it using a big spatula.
Working very quickly, pour sauce onto pizza dough; spread it out evenly over dough. Add toppings; quickly shut lid on grill. Continue to cook until cheese is melted, 2-3 min.
Remove from grill, add fresh basil; let pizza rest for 2 min. Slice and serve!
