Yield Makes 4 breads (6 servings per bread)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/4 cup warm water (105°F. to 115°F.)
1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
1 1/2 cups water, room temperature
2 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
3 3/4 cups (about) unbleached all purpose flour
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese (about 3 1/2 ounces)
1 1/2 cups grated Fontina cheese (about 6 ounces)
4 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh corn kernels or frozen, thawed
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or Italian parsley
4 teaspoons minced seeded jalapeños

Steps:

Pour 1/4 cup warm water into large bowl. Sprinkle yeast over; stir to blend. Let stand until yeast dissolves and mixture is slightly foamy, about 10 minutes.
Stir 1 1/2 cups room-temperature water and salt into yeast mixture. Add 3 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring until slightly sticky dough forms. Knead dough on floured surface until smooth and elastic, adding more flour by tablespoonfuls if sticky, about 10 minutes. Oil large bowl. Add dough; turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm area until doubled in volume, about 50 minutes.
Punch dough down; turn out onto floured surface. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces; knead each briefly until smooth. Cover with towel; let rise until almost doubled, about 30 minutes.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Roll out 1 dough piece on lightly floured surface to 11 x 8-inch rectangle. Transfer to floured baking sheet. Brush top with oil. Place oiled side down on barbecue. Grill until bottom is golden, about 2 1/2 minutes. Brush top with oil. Using tongs, turn bread over; grill until second side is golden, about 2 minutes. Transfer to baking sheet. Brush bread with oil. Repeat with remaining dough pieces. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover with foil; let stand at room temperature. Before continuing, prepare barbecue; use medium-high heat.)
Sprinkle Parmesan and Fontina over breads. Top each with tomato slices, corn kernels, parsley and jalapeño. Drizzle with oil. Place breads on barbecue; cover loosely with foil. Grill until cheese melts, watching closely, about 2 minutes. Cut each bread into pieces; serve warm.

Time 20m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 pound prepared pizza dough, at room temperature
All-purpose flour, for rolling
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups shredded mozzarella
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 medium plum tomatoes, sliced and patted dry
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves, torn

Steps:

Stretch and roll the dough on a lightly floured surface into a thin rustic round about 1/4 inch thick and 12-inches in diameter (no need to be perfectly round). Transfer to an 18-inch-long piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil and brush the pizza with the oil. Lift the whole piece of foil and put on the grill. Grill until the dough is charred on the bottom and almost cooked through, turning the foil a quarter turn a few times to ensure even cooking, 4 to 7 minutes.
Using the foil, remove the crust from the grill. Scatter the mozzarella and Parmesan over top, add the sliced tomato and season lightly with salt and pepper. Using the foil, lift the pizza back onto the grill. Cover and grill until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove the pizza from the grill and top with the basil.
