Ingredients

• 1 ball (approximately 12 oz) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
• 1 cup Cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 450°F). If using an oven, preheat to 475°F and place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet in the oven to heat.

Step 2

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a large piece of parchment paper for easy handling.

Step 3

Brush the top of the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Minimize toppings near the edges to allow for a crispy crust during grilling or baking.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, toss the artichoke hearts and mushrooms with the minced garlic, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Carefully transfer the pizza dough (on the parchment paper) to the grill or oven. Grill/bake for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is lightly cooked and has grill marks or golden edges. Flip and grill/bake for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Spread the artichoke and mushroom mixture evenly over the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the top.

Step 7

If grilling, return the pizza to the grill, close the lid, and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts and bubbles. If baking, slide the pizza (without parchment) onto the preheated pizza stone/baking sheet and bake for 7-10 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the pizza from the grill/oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. Top with chopped fresh basil and a pinch of red pepper flakes if desired.

Step 9

Slice into wedges and serve hot. Enjoy your Grilled Artichoke Mushroom Pizza!
