Southwest Grilled Pizza

This is sort of a no measure recipe, I just eye balled it.

Ingredients:
  • Your favorite pizza dough, let it rise twice.  (or easier is a dough purchased from the bakery at your grocery store, or a Pillsbury refrigerated crust)
  • Shredded Cheese, Monterey Jack, or Colby Jack is great for a SW style.  Add some cumin to the cheese probably a tablespoon or so
  • Corn Cobs 2-3 husked
  • Shredded Chicken
  • Diced bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange)
  • Dice tomatoes-fresh is best!!
  • 2-3 sliced green onions. 
  •   Any of your other favorite toppings
How to make it:
  1. Start by heating your grill  you want to have a zone where the grill is using indirect heat.  When the grill is ready put the Corn on.  Grill for about 10 minutes on each side. You want the corn to be a LITTLE charred.
  2. While the corn is grilling, start rolling out your dough.  You want to break off a piece of dough, and roll it as thin as you can get it.  We make them personal size pizzas, there's no need to make them round, just roll them out thin.
  3. Take the corn off the grill, and cut it off the cob over a sheet of parchment, or waxed paper.  You can then easily pour it in a bowl this way.
  4. Put your first dough on the grill, and close the lid.  Grill 2-3 minutes on the first side. You should see the grill lines when you flip it.  When it's ready flip it onto the cool side of the grill.side. 
  5. You can now add your toppings and another crust. Close the lid to the grill and let it cook 2-3 minutes. Take it off when the cheese is all melted.
