Ingredients
- 1 pound prepared pizza dough
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Greek seasoning
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce
- 8 slices fresh mozzarella cheese, or more to taste
- 1/4 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 10 sardines
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 large egg (optional)
- 3 leaves fresh basil, torn
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice , or to taste
Steps
- Preheat a gas grill with all burners on High for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Shape pizza dough into a disc. Reduce the flame on half the grill burners to Low, to create areas of direct and indirect heat.
- Carefully place dough onto the grill over direct heat. Close the cover. Let dough grill until the bottom is just barely cooked and shows char marks, 1 to 3 minutes.
- Use tongs to flip pizza dough over; move to the indirect heat. Brush dough with olive oil, and sprinkle with Greek seasoning. Place mozzarella slices, tomatoes, and sardines on pizza.
- Sprinkle oregano evenly over the pizza. Crack open egg and place in center of the pizza.
- Grill until cheese is melted, and egg white is no longer clear, about 3 minutes. Carefully remove pizza from the grill.
- Sprinkle with torn basil; squeeze lemon juice over the pizza.
