Best Skinny Grilled Sausage And Pepper Pizza Recipes

GRILLED PIZZA WITH HOT SAUSAGE, GRILLED PEPPERS AND ONIONS AND OREGANO RICOTTA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill.
• Grill the sausage on both sides until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes per side. Brush onions and peppers with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the onions and peppers until soft, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the sausage from the grill and slice into 1/4-inch thick slices. Remove the onions, separate into rings, and roughly chop. Remove the peppers and slice into 1/8-inch thick slices.
• Heat grill to high. Brush dough with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and grill for 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown. Turn over and grill for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the grill and place on a flat surface.
• Divide the fontina cheese among the 4 pizza rounds. Divide the sausage, onions and peppers over the cheese. Place the pizza on the grill, close the cover and grill until the cheese has melted, about 3 to 4 minutes. To finish in the oven, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the pizza on sheet pans and bake until the cheese has melted, about 5 to 10 minutes.
• Mix together the ricotta, extra-virgin olive oil, and oregano in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove the pizzas from the oven and drizzle with Basil Vinaigrette. Top with dollops of the ricotta cheese mixture and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve.
• Combine all ingredients and blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.

• Drain sausage on paper towels. Wipe out skillet if necessary.
• Coat skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium high heat. Add green and red bell peppers, onion and garlic. Coat vegetables lightly with cooking spray.
• Cook, stirring often, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in oregano and pepper flakes.
• Spread tomato sauce over crust. Top with vegetable mixture. Dot with sausages and sprinkle cheese over everything.

GRILLED SAUSAGE PIZZA WITH BELL PEPPER SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Place the pizza dough on a baking sheet and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil; set aside. Grill the sausages, turning often, until cooked through, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into 1/4-inch-thick rounds; set aside.
• Combine the bell peppers, parsley, red onion, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and the balsamic vinegar in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat; set aside.
• Stretch the pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Place the pizza dough directly on the grill grates; cook until the crust is golden and marked, about 5 minutes. Flip the crust and spread with the marinara sauce. Top with half of the cheese, then the sausage and the remaining cheese. Cover and grill until the cheese melts and the crust is cooked through, about 6 more minutes. Remove the pizza from the grill; let sit 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the bell pepper salad.
