Grilled Pizza With Tomato, Olives, Jalapenos, Mozzarella

Perhaps you’ve seen the bumper sticker or T-shirt that says, “Against abortion? Don’t have one.” It’s basically making the [point]: if you oppose abortion, good for you – don’t have one; but also don’t tell other people what they can and can’t do. I wonder why no one applies this to other issues: Against child abuse? Don’t do it. Against slavery? Don’t own one. Against rape? Don’t do it. The bumper sticker sounds compelling at first – until you stop and think about it.

INSTRUCTIONS

Note: See the "Pizza Dough III" recipe which is included in this
collection.  Prepare a hardwood charcoal fire and set the grill rack 3
to 4 inches  above the coals. Or preheat a cast-iron grill on the stove
top. On a  large, lightly oiled unrimmed baking sheet, spread and
flatten the  dough with your hands to form a 12-inch free-form round,
about  1/16-inch thick. Do not make a lip. Gently drape the dough on
the hot  grill. After about a minute, the dough will puff slightly, the
underside will stiffen and grill marks will appear. Using tongs,
immediately flip the crust over onto a warmed baking sheet and brush
with olive oil. Scatter the garlic, cheeses, tomatoes, jalapeno and
olives over the crust. Drizzle with the olive oil. Slide the pizza
back toward the hot coals (not directly over them) or onto the grill
pan. Using tongs, rotate the pizza frequently so that different
sections receive high heat; check the underside often to see that it
does not burn. Continue to cook for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the top
is bubbly and the cheese is melted. Serve immediately. This recipe
yields one 12-inch pizza.  Recipe Source: COOKING LIVE with Sara
