Sunday Supper: Fire Up the Grill!

Happy Sunday! We have had the most wonderful spring weather for a couple days now (it's not going to last long, though), so Chris is ready for some grilling! He really loves to grill, and he considers himself a Bobby Flay wannabe. *lol* We're planning on firing up the grill this evening after Kyle's soccer practice.

Here's one of my favorite recipes for the grill. It's from the book A Man, A Can, A Grill by David Joachim -- one of Chris's go-to grilling books (besides Bobby's books, of course!). If you've never had pizza on the grill, this is a great recipe to try! It's quick and delicious!

Grilled Buffalo Pizza

10-oz. can chunk white chicken in water, drained and flaked
1/4 cup mild hot-pepper sauce
10-oz. can refrigerated pizza dough
1 cup shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese (may use low-fat cheese)
3 Tbs. butter (may use low-calorie butter)
1/4 cup blue cheese salad dressing (may use light dressing)
cooking spray
aluminum foil

Makes 2 medium pizzas

Fire up your grill to medium-low. In a medium bowl, microwave the butter until melted. Stir in the chicken and hot sauce. Unroll the dough and cut it in half. Coat two pieces of foil with cooking spray and put dough on each. Press dough into 8" circles. Coat with more spray. Invert onto the grill and peel off the foil. Grill for 1 to 2 minutes, or until just brown on bottom. Invert onto a cutting board. Spread blue cheese and buffalo chicken on each. Scatter 1/2 of the cheese on each. put the pizzas back onto the grill. Close the lid and top vents. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crusts are brown. Cut each into 4 slices.


Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you have a fantastic day, and don't forget to spend some time around the supper table! :)
