Grilled Chicken Pizza


 Ingredients

Chicken

    1 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 tablespoons vinegar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

Crust & Toppings

    1 pound frozen pizza dough, thawed in the refrigerator
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/2 cup jarred pizza sauce (such as Ragu)
    2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
    2 tablespoons grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
    3 tablespoons shredded fresh basil leaves
 

Directions

Chicken

1. Combine basil leaves, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in a blender or mini chopper. While blender is running, add 1/3 cup water. Continue blending until fairly smooth. Place chicken in a glass dish and add contents of blender. Let stand while heating grill.

Crust & Toppings

1. Divide thawed dough in half. Roll each half on a lightly floured surface to a 9-inch circle. Let rest.
2. Heat gas grill to medium-high or coals in charcoal grill to medium hot. Grill chicken for 15 minutes or until cooked through, turning once. Remove to a cutting board and slice into bite-size pieces.
3. Brush pizza doughs with some of the olive oil. Transfer doughs, oil-side down, onto grill. Brush dough tops with olive oil. Cover and grill 3 minutes. Using tongs and a spatula, flip over doughs. Working quickly, spread 1/4 cup pizza sauce on each pie. Top with mozzarella. Cover and grill 2 minutes. Uncover and divide grilled chicken between pies. Grill 1 minute. Remove pizzas to cutting board and top with grated cheese and fresh basil and serve.

Tip

    *Tip:


    Line grill with a layer of foil for easier cleanup.
