Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound pizza dough let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil divided
  • 1 tablespoon cornmeal for dusting peel or sheet
  • 0.75 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella
  • 3 ounce pepperoni slices
  • 0.5 cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 0.25 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 0.25 cup fresh basil, chopped plus more for garnish
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 450°F). Clean and oil the grates well to prevent sticking.
  • On a cornmeal-dusted peel or inverted baking sheet, stretch the dough into a roughly 12-inch round. Brush the top with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Carefully flip the dough onto the grill, oiled-side down. Grill uncovered for 2 to 3 minutes until the top bubbles and the bottom has grill marks. Brush the now-top side with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Flip the crust. Quickly spread the pizza sauce, then add mozzarella, pepperoni, bell pepper, and red onion. Close the lid and cook 3 to 5 minutes until cheese is melted and the bottom is crisp.
  • Transfer to a board, sprinkle with basil, rest 2 minutes, then slice into 8 pieces and serve hot.

Notes

Tip: If using a charcoal grill, build a two-zone fire to finish the pizza over indirect heat if the crust browns too quickly. Add crushed red pepper or a drizzle of hot honey for a sweet-heat finish.
