Recipe adapted from Pizza On The Grill, Karmel and Blumer, 2008.
- 1 package (7.5 oz) Chebe Pizza Crust Mix
- 1 handful shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 Tbsp ground flax meal, optional
- 4 Tbsp milk or milk substitute
- 2 large eggs or aquafaba*
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- ¼ cup uncooked grits or polenta for rolling the dough ., optional
- 10 oz chicken breast (may use cooked rotisserie chicken)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- to taste Chicken breast seasoning: cumin, chili powder, sea salt, freshly ground pepper
- ½ cup BBQ sauce
- 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, diced
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 1 tomato, thinly sliced
- 1/3 red onion, thinly sliced
- ½ bell pepper, thinly sliced
- BBQ rub or dried chili pepper flakes
-
Preheat grill to high. Rub chicken breast with olive oil, then with chicken seasoning.
-
Grill both sides until done, let cool, then shred and set aside until later. Keep the grill heated at high.
-
Prepare the Chebe dough according to package instructions and form into a ball, flatten slightly. Flatten/shape the dough with hands until it is between 1/8” and ¼” inch thick. Brush with olive oil. Sprinkle both sides with polenta or grits if desired.
-
Reduce grill to medium, lay the dough on the grate, close the cover and grill the first side of the crust for 3 minutes. (Keep the cover closed for all 3 minutes!)
-
With tongs, transfer it to a flat surface (a large cutting board or baking sheet).
-
Close the grill cover and TURN OFF the center or the side burner (see note below).
-
Flip the crust to show the grilled side. Cover with a layer of BBQ sauce, and then add the shredded chicken. Continue topping with cheeses, tomato, onion, bell pepper, and BBQ rub or the chili pepper flakes.
-
Return it to the grill and place it over the burner that is turned off (indirect heat). Close the cover and grill until the bottom is browned and the cheese is melted (7 to 10 minutes).
-
Remove from the grill onto the flat cutting board or baking sheet.
*Aquafaba (bean water) is the liquid from cooked legumes (pinto beans, chickpeas, lentils, etc. 3 Tbsp = 1 egg. We recommend liquid from the can of chickpeas.
Regarding the indirect heating method, turn off the center burner(s) if using a 3 or 4 burner grill, and turn off the side burner if using a 2 burner grill. If using charcoal, push the coals to one side.
Quality ingredients make a big difference in the flavor of the pizza. We recommend a BBQ sauce w/o corn syrup or high fructose corn syrup.
