Ingredients and Preparation
| Ingredients | Measures |
|---|---|
| Plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped | 3 |
| Shredded mozzarella cheese | 1 cup |
| Olive oil | 1 tablespoon |
| Balsamic vinegar | 1 tablespoon |
| Cooking spray | |
| Garlic clove, minced | 1 |
| Sweet Italian sausage (about 1 link), casings removed | 1/3 pound |
| Red onion, sliced into 1/8 to ¼-inch strips | ¼ |
| Yellow bell pepper, sliced into 1/8 to ¼-inch strips | ½ |
| Fresh rosemary, chopped | 2 tablespoons |
| Refrigerated pizza dough | 10 ounces |
- Directions
- Combine tomatoes, cheese, oil, and vinegar in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat, add garlic, and cook 1 minute. Add sausage, onion, and pepper, and sauté, breaking sausage apart as it cooks, about 6-8 minutes, until sausage is cooked and vegetables are tender. Stir in rosemary during the last minute of cooking. Using a slotted spoon, transfer sausage mixture to a plate covered with several layers of paper towels.
- Prepare grill. Unroll pizza dough into a 12-inch square, transfer to grill, and grill about 4 minutes, until bottom is browned. Carefully flip dough over. Spread sausage mixture over dough (leave a ½-inch border), top with tomato-cheese mixture, and grill an additional 6-8 minutes, until cheese is melted and dough is cooked through.
