It’s grilling season (kind of!). I knew that the second the temp reached 50 degrees that I would instantly roll out my Weber.
One of my favorite desserts is grilled pineapple – it’s sweet and smoky flavor is irresistible. While great on it’s own, I figured this delicious fruit would also make a great pizza topping. This pizza is slathered with a homemade honey chipotle bbq sauce that pairs perfectly with the salty monterey jack cheese and Canadian bacon. Finish with a fresh cilantro and you’ve got a meal in literally minutes!
1. Preheat your grill (medium heat is best).
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
3. Add ketchup, brown sugar, honey, chipotle peppers, vinegar, salt and pepper and stir to combine. Simmer for 3 minutes longer and remove from heat.
4. Carefully pour sauce mixture into a blender and process for 30 seconds, or until smooth. Transfer to a bowl.
5. Grill pineapple slices for 4 minutes per side and transfer to a plate to cool. Slice into pieces.
6. Top each flatbread with sauce, cheese, Canadian bacon and pineapple.
7. Place flatbreads on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until crust is slightly crisp and the cheese is melted.
8. Cut pizza into slices and garnish with fresh cilantro.
