A classic combination of flavors but what better than to throw it on a grilled pizza? The pungent blue cheese pairs so well with the rest of the sweet figs and salty prosciutto!
1pizza dough recipe or your favorite store-bought dough
2tablespoonsolive oil
2clovesof garlicfinely minced
Figssliced
Thinly sliced prosciutto
Blue cheese crumbles or your favorite cheese
Basil leaves,for topping (optional)
Instructions
Preheat outdoor grill on high.
In a small ramekin, add olive oil and garlic and set aside.
While you're preheating the grill, roll out your dough on a lightly floured 9-inch pizza pan. Gently stretch it and pull it to fit the 9-inch pizza pan.
Once done, lightly brush dough with garlic olive oil. Then place it gently on the grill (you may need a helping hand for this part). Close the lid and grill for 3-5 minutes on each side (checking every so often to make sure the bottom doesn't get too charred - every grill VARIES in temperature so keep an eye on it).
After 3-5 minutes, flip the dough on the other side, close the lid and grill for another 3-5 minutes, again checking every so often to make sure it doesn't get too charred.
Once both sides have been grilled, bring the dough inside to assemble your toppings.
Brush the remaining garlic olive oil on the dough then sprinkle blue cheese on top so the residual heat will start to melt it a bit.
Add prosciutto and figs on top, along with basil, if using, then slice and serve!
Notes
If you do not like blue cheese, feel free to substitute with whatever cheese you like.
