Things To Grab
- Charcoal or gas grill
- 2 large baking sheets
- Meat thermometer
- Large bowl
- Saran wrap
- Rolling pin
Directions
- Brush grill grates and a grill wok or vegetable grate with cooking oil.
- Preheat grill and wok for direct cooking over high heat.
- On a large baking sheet place summer squash, tomatoes and onion; coat with 1-1/2 tablespoons olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt.
- On a separate baking sheet, place chicken and coat with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt.
- Decrease grill heat to medium-high.
- Grill chicken tenders for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Grill vegetables in wok about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally until tender and slightly charred.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl stir together pizza crust mix, flour and water until combined. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 1 minute. Cover and let rest about 5 minutes. Divide dough in half. On lightly floured surface, roll out each half to roughly a 13-by-9-inch oval. Brush each side with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and place on baking sheets.
- Transfer pizza dough to grill. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until underside is golden brown and charred. With a large spatula, turn dough. Working quickly, spread 3 tablespoons pesto over each oval almost to edge. Arrange grilled vegetables and chicken over pesto. Top with cheese and lemon pepper seasoning. Grill until underside is golden and charred, about 3 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Garnish with basil, if desired.
