Grilled Pizza with Chicken Sausage, Onions and Sweet Peppers



Ingredients

2 link Casual Gourmet Chicken Sausage - Pesto, or other brand, halved lengthwise and thinly slice
1 small red onion(s), cut into thin slivers
1 small yellow pepper(s), cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1/2 cup pizza sauce, or tomato sauce
1 tsp dried oregano
3/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 medium whole wheat tortilla(s)
Instructions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill (or a grill pan over medium-high heat). Place sausage, onion and pepper on grill in a grill basket; cook, flipping once, until sausage is golden and vegetables start to brown, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from grill and set aside until ready to use.

2. To prepare pizzas, place 2 tablespoons of sauce on each tortilla. Sprinkle each with 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano and then top each with 1/4 of sausage-vegetable mixture; top each with 3 tablespoons of cheese.

3. Place pizzas on grill (or as many as will fit on grill pan at one time) and cook until edges begin to brown, about 3 to 5 minutes; rotate pizzas. Continue cooking until cheese is bubbly, about 2 to 4 minutes more. (If all 4 pizzas do not fit on grill pan at once, repeat with remaining ingredients.) Yields 1 pizza per serving.
