Grilled Pizza with Squash Blossoms and Burrata

Grilled Pizza with Squash Blossoms and Burrata

Ingredients

  • 1 pizza dough, homemade or store bought
  • 10-12 squash blossoms
  • 2 balls burrata cheese, sliced into thin pieces
  • ½ cup basil leaves
  • Sprinkling of kosher salt
  • Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
  • Parmesan cheese, for garnish
  • Red chili flakes, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat your grill to 500°F.

  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into about a 12-inch round. Using a pizza peel or a sheet tray flipped upside down, place the floured dough on it for an easy transfer to the grill.

  3. Once your grill is up to heat slide the dough onto it. Cover with the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the bottom gets nice and charred.

  4. Remove from grill and place, grilled side up, on your work surface. Drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Take one ball of burrata and place sporadically around the dough, followed by the blossoms. Next add the remaining ball of cheese to spots that aren’t yet covered. Finish with the basil leaves and a good sprinkling of salt.

  5. Place the pizza back on the peel or baking sheet and back onto the grill. Cover and cook for another 5 minutes or until the cheese melts and the bottom chars slightly.

  6. Remove and garnish with Parmesan cheese and chili flakes. Enjoy immediately.
