Description
A quick and flavorful grilled flatbread pizza topped with homemade or store-bought pesto, fresh tomatoes, and buffalo mozzarella. This simple and satisfying dish is perfect for summer nights or any time you’re craving a delicious and easy pizza.
Ingredients
- 1 piece of flatbread or naan bread (about 10 inches long)
- Olive oil (for brushing on bread)
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 1/4 cup pesto (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 large ripe tomato, sliced
- 2 ounces buffalo mozzarella, sliced thin
Instructions
- Preheat a grill or broiler to high.
- Brush both sides of the flatbread lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
- Grill the bread lightly on both sides, or heat under the broiler just until it starts to warm and bubble. Avoid letting it brown too much.
- Remove the bread from the heat and spread pesto on one side of the bread.
- Top the pesto with sliced tomatoes and add the mozzarella cheese slices.
- Turn the grill or broiler to low, return the flatbread to heat, and warm until the toppings are heated through and the cheese melts, about 2-3 minutes.
Notes
- You can use store-bought or homemade pesto based on your preference.
- Watch the flatbread closely while grilling or broiling to prevent over-browning.
