Calories 277kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ball pizza dough about 1 pound, store-bought or homemade
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce store-bought or homemade
- Corn kernels
- Tomato slices
- Whole Mozzarella
- Fresh basil
Instructions
- Preheat the grill on high for 5-10 minutes. Allow store-bought dough to rise at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- Punch the dough to form a crevice, then drizzle the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder and oregano in the crevice. Massage the olive oil and spices into dough, then stretch and roll out the dough into a circular shape.
- Place the dough on the grill. Brush the top of the dough with a thin layer of olive oil, then close the grill and cook for about 2 minutes. The dough should get some grill marks on it, but should not look burnt.
- Use tongs to flip the dough, the brush more olive oil on top. Spread a thin layer of the sauce, then add the corn, tomato slices, mozzarella and sprinkle paprika. Be careful not to overload the pizza so it cooks evenly.
- Close the grill and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the bottom of the crust is lightly charred.
- Use tongs to remove the pizza from the grill. Let cool for a few minutes to cool and then slice.
