GRILLED MEXICAN PIZZA WITH SALSA VERDE AND CHORIZO

Steps:

• Place wine, water, and yeast in a large bowl; whisk until combined. Stir in honey, salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Mix in 1 cup of flour with a wooden spoon until it becomes a loose batter. Add 2 more cups of flour and stir for 2-3 minutes. Incorporate as much flour as you can with the wooden spoon.
• Bring dough together by hand and turn out onto a floured board or marble surface with the remaining ¼ cup flour. Knead around 3 minutes until dough is smooth and just slightly sticky.
• Place dough in an oiled bowl, using the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cover bowl with a dishtowel. Let rise in a warm part of the kitchen for 45 minutes. The dough should triple in size.
• For individual pizzas, cut the dough into 4 pieces and knead into rounds. Cut into 3 pieces for pizzas that will serve 2. Let rest 15 minutes. (Dough can be made 1 day ahead. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
• Preheat grill with pizza stone on grates over medium-high heat to around 550°F, or conventional oven to 500°F.
• Sprinkle pizza peel with 1-2 tablespoons of cornmeal. Stretch dough into desired shape and place on pizza peel.
• Spread salsa verde over dough. Top with oaxaca and queso fresco cheese. Sprinkle chorizo, cherry tomatoes and sun-dried tomatoes over cheese.
• Slide pizza off peel and onto preheated stone. Close the lid and grill 5-6 minutes (or bake in oven 7-8 minutes), until crust is golden on the edges and brown and crisp on the bottom.
• When done, use a large spatula to help transfer pizza back onto the peel. Top with additional crumbled queso fresco, green onion and cilantro, as desired. Cut into slices and serve.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss tomatillos, onion, peppers, and garlic with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Let vegetables cool enough to peel garlic and remove seeds and charred skin from the peppers.
• Transfer all vegetables to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth (be sure to leave space for steam to vent when blending hot ingredients).
• Next, blend in lime juice and zest, cilantro, and honey. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.) Makes about 2 ½ cups.
• Use as sauce on Mexican Pizza or serve with chips, over steak, chicken, pork, fish and seafood. It's even great on omelets! Leftover sauce can be frozen up to 3 months.
