Ingredients

1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
4 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
2 cups fresh arugula
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic glaze (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Shape the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza peel or a flat surface for easy transfer to the grill.
Add Toppings: Place the sliced mozzarella evenly over the dough. Season with salt and pepper.

Grill the Pizza: Carefully transfer the pizza to the grill. Close the lid and grill for about 5-7 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
Add Prosciutto and Arugula: Once the pizza is cooked, remove it from the grill. Top with slices of prosciutto and fresh arugula. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze if desired.
Slice and Serve: Cut the pizza into slices and serve immediately while hot.
