Grilled Zucchini Pizza Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Brush one side of each zucchini round with olive oil; brush the opposite side with pizza sauce. Evenly divide red onion, roasted red pepper, mushrooms, goat cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic, and Italian seasoning over each zucchini round.
• Grill zucchini pizzas over preheated grill until zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Slice the Zucchini into thick rounds. Combine the melted butter and crushed garlic in a small bowl. set aside.
• When the coals on your barbeque are almost burned down, lay your zucchini slices on the grill. Let cook for three minutes then turn over and brush the butter/garlic mixture on each slice. Cook for three more minutes and turn over again and brush the other side with the garlic and butter.
• Cover the slices with pizza sauce and cheese and let cook until the cheese begins to melt.

Steps:

• Over each naan, spread 2 tablespoons pesto; top with 1/2 cup mozzarella and one-fourth of the zucchini, onion and salami., Grill, covered, over medium-low heat until mozzarella has melted and vegetables are tender, 4-6 minutes. Rotate naan halfway through grilling for evenly browned crust., Remove from heat. Top each naan with basil and Romano; cut into thirds.

Steps:

• Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, adjust an oven rack to the upper-middle position, and preheat the broiler to high.
• Trim the ends from the zucchini and slice each zucchini crosswise into 1/2- to 3/4-inch rounds (you should get about 24 rounds). Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and cook until browned on one side (in batches, if needed), 4 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer the zucchini to the baking sheet, browned side up. Top each zucchini round with 1/2 teaspoon of the marinara sauce, a pepperoni slice (if using), and a piece of mozzarella. Broil the zucchini until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes (watch the pizza bites closely, as broiler intensities vary).
• Remove the zucchini from the oven and transfer to a platter. Sprinkle with the salt and serve warm.

Steps:

• For the dough: Put the water and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the yeast on top; let rest until the mixture bubbles, about 5 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour and salt in a large bowl to break up any lumps. When the yeast is ready, add the flour mixture and olive oil and mix, using dough hook, on the lowest speed until the dough looks shredded, about 1 to 2 minutes. Increase the speed to medium and continue to mix until the dough is smooth and very elastic, (you should be able to stretch it 2 to 3 inches without breaking), about 6 to 10 minutes.
• Turn the dough out of the mixer, form it into a ball, and put into a large, oiled mixing bowl. Turn to coat the dough in the oil then cover with a clean, damp dishtowel, and let rest in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 30 to 45 minutes. (Alternatively, refrigerate the dough and let rise 12 to 24 hours before using.) Punch the dough down and shape as desired.
• For the zucchini: Heat the grill to medium-high (about 375 degrees F) and rub the grate with a towel dipped in oil. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and the zucchini to a large bowl and toss to coat. Grill the zucchini, covered, turning rarely, until tender and charred, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Transfer the cooked zucchini to a bowl and add the red wine vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Season with the salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to coat. Set aside until ready to use.
• For the pizza: Heat the grill to medium-high (about 375 degrees F) and rub the grate with a towel dipped in oil.
• Oil your hands, put half of the dough (about 1 pound) on a piece of parchment paper, and press the dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Drizzle the dough with oil. Lay the dough, oiled side down, on the grill and remove the parchment paper. Grill the dough until golden brown, toasted, and grill marks form on the bottom, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the dough, brush with 1 tablespoon oil and top with half of the mozzarella. Cover with half of the zucchini and half of the goat cheese. Close the grill, checking and rotating as needed to avoid burning, until dough is lightly charred and cheese is melted, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer the pizza to a cutting board, top with half of the basil leaves, and half of the sun-dried tomatoes, and serve. Repeat to make a second pizza.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for medium heat.
• Slice the zucchinis in half lengthwise. Score the cut side of the zucchinis in a cross-hatch pattern to create 1/2-inch squares across the surface, making sure not to cut through the skin.
• Mix the olive oil with the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and red pepper flakes if using. Spread 1 teaspoon oil mix on the cut side of each zucchini, dividing any extra between the zucchinis.
• Lightly oil the grill grates with olive oil. Place the zucchini halves cut-side up on the grill. Close the lid and grill until the skin side has dark grill marks, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Reduce the grill heat to medium-low and flip the zucchini cut-side down. Grill, covered, until softened, marked by the grill and golden brown, about 6 minutes. Flip the zucchinis again so they are cut-side up. Spread 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce onto each zucchini, then sprinkle each with about 2 tablespoons mozzarella and a few pepperonis. Cover and grill until mozzarella is melted, bubbling and starting to brown at the edges, 5 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle with more salt and Italian seasoning.

Steps:

• If you are using your homemade crust recipe. Bake the crust in the oven until lightly brown on the bottom about 10 minutes. Allow to cool and flip it, so the browned side is facing up. If using a bread shell move to step 2.
• Prepare your grill and spray grill grates with cooking spray. While waiting for the grill brush zucchini, red onion, peppers, and tomatoes with olive oil. Sprinkle salt, pepper over veggies. Thread peppers, onion, and tomatoes on skewers.
• Place veggie skewers on grill and lay zucchini slices out. Grill until light grill marks are formed and turn. Repeat on the other side of skewers and zucchini. Remove from grill while you assemble pizza.
• Brush bread shell or pizza crust with olive oil. Sprinkle with minced garlic. Top with mozzerella. Arrange zucchini slices. Slice other grilled veggies to bite sized pieces. Half the tomatoes. Arrange veggies evenly over pizza.
• Place pizza back on grill. Close lid and bake until cheese has melted and veggies are tender about 10 minutes. Remove from grill and sprinkle with parmesean cheese. Top with fresh basil leaves (optional).
• Slice in squares for appetizers or regular slices for a main dish. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Oil the grill grates (I use a bit of oil on a paper towel), then preheat grill to medium-high. (If using a broiler, it should be reheated as well.).
• Cut zucchini into thick slices about 3/4 inch thick. (try to find an 8-Ball zucchini to get round slices, You can cut the zucchini into lengthwise slices, depending on what shape the zucchini is. I wouldn't use enormous zucchini with large seeds for this recipe.).
• Grill the zucchini 7-8 minutes, or until there are some grill marks and it's starting to be tender. (If the zucchini has a side that's slightly larger, grill that first so it will be the "top.").
• Remove zucchini from the grill, putting them grilled-side on a plate.
• Spread each slice of zucchini with about 1 T red pizza sauce.
• Add cheese and pepperoni.
• Put zucchini slices back on the grill and cook 7-8 minutes more with the grill lid closed.
• Check them every few minutes to see when the cheese is melted and the toppings are lightly browned, especially if you're using a broiler. If you have a gas grill where you can regulate the heat, turn it to high when you put the pizza back on.
• Remove zucchini pizzas from grill and serve hot.

Steps:

• Prepare gas grill for cooking over moderate heat. Preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then, if necessary, reduce to heat specified in recipe.
• Meanwhile, mince garlic with a large heavy knife, then mash to a paste with a pinch of salt using flat side of knife. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Stretch dough with your fingers into a 12- by 10-inch rectangle on a large baking sheet and rub with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Cover dough with plastic wrap.
• Toss zucchini with salt (1/4 teaspoon) and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl. Grill zucchini on lightly oiled grill rack, covered, turning occasionally, until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes total. Return to bowl.
• Bring dough, garlic oil, and cheese to grill area. Grill dough, oiled side down, on lightly oiled grill rack, covered, until underside is golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Turn crust over using tongs and brush with garlic oil. Sprinkle with half of cheese, then arrange zucchini, overlapping slightly, in 1 layer on cheese. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top and grill pizza, covered, until underside is golden brown and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer pizza with tongs and a spatula to a cutting board, then sprinkle with oregano and drizzle with remaining teaspoon olive oil.
