Grilled Gourmet Pizza with Sausage and Artichokes

Ingredients

- 1 whole frozen pizza (12-inch)
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup pepper rings (mixed colors for variety)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 pound sausage, sliced and browned
- 1/2 cup artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the Grill:
- Preheat your charcoal grill to medium-high heat (approximately 400°F).
- Arrange coals evenly for a uniform heat spread. If using a gas grill, preheat to medium-high directly.

2. Prepare Pizza Toppings:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Once hot, sauté onions until translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, brown the sliced sausage for about 7-10 minutes until cooked through. Drain and set aside.
- Lightly brush the mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, and pepper rings with the remaining olive oil.

3. Grill the Pizza:
- Remove the pizza from the freezer and allow it to sit for 5 minutes.
- Carefully place the frozen pizza directly on the hot grill grates.
- Close the grill lid and cook for 5 minutes until the crust begins to brown.

4. Add Toppings to Pizza:
- Open the grill carefully and quickly add sautéed onions, browned sausage, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, pepper rings, and artichoke hearts evenly over the pizza.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sea salt evenly over the toppings.

5. Continue Grilling:
- Close the grill lid and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes. Rotate occasionally to ensure even cooking, until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are crispy.

6. Serve:
- Once cooked, remove the pizza carefully from the grill using a large spatula.
- Let it rest for a minute before slicing into 8 pieces.
- Serve hot and enjoy your gourmet grilled pizza!
