- Yield Makes one 10-inch pizza
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Simple Tomato Sauce
- 1 1/2 ounces torn fresh mozzarella
- Fresh basil leaves
- Basic Grilled Pizza Dough

- Coarse salt and ground pepper
Directions
-
Heat it up: Set up a grill with heat source, coals or gas, on one side over medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill.
-
Stretch it: On a lightly floured work surface, stretch or roll 1 piece basic grilled pizza dough or 4 ounces store-bought dough into a 10-inch-long oval or other desired shape. Brush one side lightly with herb oil or olive oil and season with coarse salt and ground pepper.

Grill it: Using your hands, place dough, oiled side down, directly over heat source.

With tongs, flip dough and cook until lightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes. Slide dough to cooler side of grill.
