Ingredients

Step 1 and 2 Preheat the gas grill to medium-high. Meanwhile, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface with a rolling pin. Transfer to a pizza peel, cutting board, or flat cookie sheet dusted with additional flour.

Step 3 and 4 Oil the grill grates with a paper towel dipped in oil. Slide dough onto the grill and brush with olive oil; cover and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Rotate the pizza 90 degrees; cook until grill marks are brown and even, an additional 1 minute. Flip the crust so that the grill marks are up and transfer to the pizza peel, baking sheet, or cutting board.

Step 5 and 6 Spread the sauce over the par-grilled dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle evenly with cheese and toppings. Turn the grill down low (300°F) and slide the pizza back onto the grill, cover with lid and cook about 5 minutes.  Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
