Ingredients
- 1 pound pizza dough, divided into 2 balls
- 3 tablespoons pesto
- 1 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 of a yellow onion, peeled and root intact
- 1 red bell pepper, cored, seeds removed and cut into quarters
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeds removed and cut into quarters
- 2 links Spicy Italian Chicken Sausage, cooked
- fresh basil leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Clean and oil your grill grates and preheat to 425° F.
- Prep the peppers and onion rubbing them with a little olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Place them on the grill along with the chicken sausage. Grill the peppers and onion for about 8-10 minutes or until the skin is charred and they’re tender. Flip them halfway through the cooking time. Grill the sausages until the outside is crisp and they are heated through, turning them occasionally.
- Remove the vegetables and sausage from the grill onto a plate. Slice the peppers into strips and the onion into half moons. Slice the sausage into rounds. Cover the plate with foil to keep everything warm.
- Clean and oil the grill grates again keeping the temperature at 425° F. Drizzle olive oil on a large sheet pan and rub it all over to keep the dough from sticking. Take the pizza dough halves and roll or stretch them into the desired shape and thickness. Brush or rub the tops with a little more olive oil. Take the pizza dough, pesto, a spoon to spread the pesto, and mozzarella out to the grill.
- Use your hands to lift the dough off of the baking sheet and place it onto the grill grates. Adjust and stretch the dough out as needed, then cover with the lid. Grill for 2-3 minutes then uncover and use a pair of tongs to lift up the dough and check to see if it’s golden brown and has grill marks.
- Remove the pizza dough from the grill onto the sheet pan so that the grilled side is facing up. Lower the heat slightly. Spread the pesto over the tops of the crust and sprinkle on the mozzarella. Put the pizza back onto the grill and cook another 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the bottom is golden brown.
- Remove the pizzas from the grill and top them with the peppers, onion and chicken sausage. Dollop on the ricotta and finish with fresh basil leaves.
