Grilled pizza is a snap when starting with frozen bread dough. This version with a Mexican twist features a fresh homemade salsa and chorizo, a highly seasoned, coarsely ground pork sausage.

Ingredients

SALSA:
3 cups chopped seeded tomatoes
1 medium onion, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
1 poblano pepper, seeded and chopped
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro
1/4 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
PIZZAS:
1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
1/2 pound chorizo, cooked and crumbled

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the salsa ingredients; set aside.
Divide dough into fourths. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into an 8-in. circle. Lightly brush both sides of dough with oil; place on grill. Cover and grill over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until the bottom is lightly browned.
Remove from the grill. Top the grilled side of each pizza with 1/2 cup cheese, 1/4 cup chorizo and 1/2 cup salsa. Return to the grill. Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the bottom is browned and cheese is melted. Refrigerate remaining salsa.
