Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 1 lb. pizza dough or 1 tube Pillsbury thin crust dough

Toppings

  • 4 oz. soft goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 2/3 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh sage, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Grill: Heat a gas or charcoal grill to high heat. Brush the grill grates with oil to prevent the dough from sticking during cooking.
  2. Shape the Dough: On a floured surface, shape the dough into a thin crust. Allow it to rest for 5 minutes, then gently press it out again to maintain a thin size. If using store-bought dough in a tube, simply unroll it.
  3. Grill the Dough: Place the dough directly onto the hot grill. Close the lid and grill for about 2 minutes until the bottom forms grill marks. Use tongs to carefully lift the lid and flip the dough over. Lower the heat to low to avoid burning.
  4. Add Toppings and Cook: Quickly sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese and chopped pecans evenly over the grilled side, then top with shaved Parmesan cheese. Close the grill lid and cook for another 4-6 minutes, until the crust is thoroughly cooked and the cheeses are melted.
  5. Finish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the grill, sprinkle the finely chopped fresh sage on top, and drizzle generously with honey. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Brush the grill grates well with oil to prevent sticking and tearing of the dough.
  • If desired, substitute pecans with walnuts or pistachios for different nutty flavors.
  • For a crispier crust, let the dough rest longer before grilling and ensure the grill is properly preheated.
  • Use local or artisanal goat cheese for richer flavor.
  • Adjust honey amount to taste for sweeter or subtler topping.
