Ingredients

  • 8 oz store-bought refrigerated pizza dough
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated or minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
  • 1 3/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 1 1/4 cups extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 4 large leeks
  • 4 green onions, sliced into 3-inch lengths
  • 12 oz fontina cheese, coarsely shredded
  • 2 tbsps chopped fresh chives

Directions

  • Preheat grill to medium-high (450º). Divide pizza dough into 2 balls and let rest at room temperature until no longer stiff, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Prepping
    • Blend garlic, pepper, 2 tbsp oil, and 1/2 tsp of salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Cooking onions:
    • Heat the remaining 2 tbsp oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add leeks and remaining 1/4 tsp salt and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add green onions and cook, stirring often, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Stir into bowl of garlic oil.
  • Pizza dough:
    • Stretch each ball of dough into a 12-inch round and place on a lightly oiled sheet of parchment paper. Flip each round onto a preheated grill and then remove the parchment paper. Grill, covered, until the dough puffs, about 2 minutes. Transfer the rounds to a baking sheet, grilled sides up.
  • Final Steps:
    • Sprinkle grilled side of each round with 1 cup of cheese, then half of the onion mixture and half of the remaining cheese. Using a wide spatula, transfer pizzas to grill and cook, covered, 1 to 2 minutes. Then pop any large bubbles of dough (this keeps the pizza fairly flat so toppings stay on). Cook until browned and crisp on bottoms, 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove pizzas from grill, sprinkle with chives and enjoy a glass (or 2) of our Grenache Blanc. Enjoy!
