When I was a child, we went to Chuck E. Cheese’s for our birthdays. In addition to all of the cool games and the characters, I loved that they cut their pizzas into squares instead of wedges. Not only could you get more crust or less crust as you like (I’m a less-crust girl), I got to eat a number of pieces, since they’re petite. Here, I’ve cut the flatbread into squares to distinguish it from other pizzas . . . and because it just feels more decadent. If you’re making this pizza on a charcoal grill, heat the coals until they are hot and covered with gray ash. Then place the pizza on the grill about 5 inches from the coals for best results. Cover and grill for 3 to 4 minutes.
Ingredients
makes 8 servings1 (10-ounce) Boboli whole-wheat pizza crust
Olive oil spray (from a spray bottle, not a store-bought, prefilled one that contains propellant; I used a Misto)
8 ounces Basic Grilled Chicken (see page 219) or lean store-bought grilled chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 recipe Easier-Than-Caramelized Onions (see page 225)
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 1/2 ounces (about 1/3 cup) reduced-fat blue cheese crumbles
Step 1
Preheat a grill to medium heat. Lightly mist the bottom of the crust with spray. Place the crust on a metal pizza peel or cookie sheet without a lip.
Step 2
Top the crust evenly with the chicken, then the onions, rosemary, and blue cheese.
Step 3
Carefully slide the pizza onto the grill. Grill it until the cheese melts and the dough is crisped but not burned, 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully slide it back onto the peel or sheet (you may want to use tongs to drag it on) and let it stand 5 minutes. Slice the pizza into 16 squares and serve immediately.
