Grilled Pizza Quattro Stagioni image

This traditional Neapolitan-style pizza has a little something for everyone, perfect when you are feeding a variety of palates. Grilling the pizza adds a smoky char to the crust--and keeps your house cool. Choose your favorite section of topping--artichokes, olives, prosciutto or mushrooms--or have a sliver of each.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound pizza dough, at room temperature
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup jarred pizza sauce
1 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices and patted dry
3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto cotto
1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts, well drained
1/2 cup sliced cremini mushrooms (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1/2 cup pitted black olives, drained and roughly chopped
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves, optional

Steps:

  • Prepare a gas grill for medium heat or prepare a charcoal grill for medium indirect heat.
  • Rub the dough with the oil. On a clean work surface, pat and stretch the dough into a rustic 12-inch circle (no need for perfect shaping). Carefully transfer the dough to the grill grates; cook until grill marks appear and the crust is golden, about 6 minutes. Flip, spread the sauce on the crust in an even layer and scatter with the mozzarella. Top a quarter of the pizza with the prosciutto, a quarter with the artichokes, a quarter with the mushrooms and a quarter with the olives. Cover and grill until the cheese is melted, the crust is cooked through and the underside is charred in spots, about 6 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board; let stand about 5 minutes. Top with the basil, if using, and cut into slices.
