1
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy. Add olive oil, salt, and gradually mix in flour until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour.
2
Prepare the Grill
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a pizza stone, place it on the grill to heat up.
3
Shape the Pizza
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 2-4 equal portions, depending on desired pizza size. Roll out each portion on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
4
Assemble the Pizza
Transfer the rolled dough onto a lightly floured pizza peel or a piece of parchment paper. Spread a layer of tomato sauce on top, followed by mozzarella cheese and your choice of toppings.
5
Grill the Pizza
Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated grill or pizza stone. Close the lid and grill for about 5-7 minutes, or until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
6
Serve
Once cooked, remove the pizza from the grill. Drizzle with olive oil and add fresh basil leaves. Slice and serve hot.
