Time 28m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
1 envelope Fleischmann's® Pizza Crust Yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ⅓ cups very warm water (120 degrees to 130 degrees F)*
⅓ cup oil
1 tablespoon Additional flour for rolling
1 teaspoon Additional oil for grilling
½ cup Pizza sauce
Other toppings as desired
1 ounce Shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

Start charcoal fire or preheat gas grill to medium-high heat.
Combine 2 cups flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add enough flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. Knead** on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic but not sticky, about 5 minutes.
Divide dough into 8 portions. Pat or roll dough on a well-floured counter to about 8-inch circles; they do not need to be perfect.
Brush both sides of crust with additional oil. Using hands, lift each crust carefully and place on grill. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bottom is lightly browned and top looks set. Using long handled tongs, remove crust from grill, grilled side up, to a platter or baking sheet.
Lightly add sauce and top the grilled side of each pizza crust. Excess sauce or toppings makes the pizza hard to handle. Repeat with remaining pizzas.
Carefully slide each pizza onto the grill. Cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes until bottom of crust is browned and cheese is melted. Remove from grill and serve immediately.

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 pre-baked pizza crust
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped
¼ cup white wine vinegar
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
⅓ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 pears - peeled, cored and sliced
¼ cup toasted walnut pieces

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Place the pizza crust on a pizza pan. Bake in the preheated oven until just crisp, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine the garlic, Dijon mustard, rosemary, and vinegar in a food processor or blender. Turn on, and drizzle in the olive oil slowly until the dressing has thickened. Quickly pulse in 1/4 cup of blue cheese; season to taste with salt and pepper.
Spread the vinaigrette over the pizza crust. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of blue cheese evenly over the crust, followed by the mozzarella cheese. Arrange the sliced pears over the cheese, and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and is bubbly, 7 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before cutting into slices.

Tips:

Use a high-quality pizza dough for the best results.
If you don't have a grill, you can cook the pizza in a hot oven.
Be careful not to overcook the pizza, as the pears can easily burn.
If you don't have fresh pecorino cheese, you can use a hard grating cheese, such as Parmesan.
Walnuts can be toasted in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes to enhance their flavor.

Conclusion:

Grilled pizza with pears, fresh pecorino, and walnuts is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a summer cookout or a casual dinner party. The combination of sweet pears, salty cheese, and crunchy walnuts is sure to please everyone.
