GRILL-FRIENDLY PIZZA DOUGH image

Yield 2 12" pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 packet instant yeast
1 pound all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading and rolling out
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 cup hot water
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more to oil the dough

Steps:

Combine yeast, flour, sugar, and salt, in that order, in a large mixing bowl. In a small mixing bowl combine the water and olive oil and then stir into the flour mixture with a large wooden spoon until a dough starts to form. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for 10 minutes, or until the dough develops a silky texture. Oil the surface of the dough and place it in another large metal mixing bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a a warm place until doubled in size, about 1.5 hours. Divide the dough in half and with a rolling pin roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Heat grill to medium-low. Cook the dough on one side until firm and lightly browned, then turn, add your favorite toppings and cook until lightly browned on the other side.
