GRILLED GARLIC BREADSTICKS WITH SWEET AND ZESTY SAUCE
Those garlicky, buttery, crispy, chewy breadsticks you love at the pizza shop are easy to make at home, too. And in the summer, ir's even easier. No need to crank up the oven. Just toss them on them on the grill with whatever else you're cooking. The sesasoning blend in this recipe - kosher salt, garlic powder, black pepper and onion powder - is a pretty traditional take on garlic breadsticks. But it would easy to play with, adding the kick with chili powder or paprika, or even cumin and cinnamon. For a dessert version, make a seasoning mix from 1 Tbsp. cinnamon, 2 Tbsp. sugar, 1/4 tsp. cardamom, and 1/4 tsp. kosher salt. Make an instant dipping sauce by microwaving purchased vanilla frosting.

- Place butter in a second wide shallow bowl.
- One or two at a time, place strips of dough in butter and turn to coat evenly.
- Shake off any excess butter, then lightly dredge strips through seasoning mix to coat. Set side.
