Directions:
Preheat the grill to medium heat and prepare the grates by brushing lightly with olive oil. Stretch and shape the dough into a 10 to 12 inch round. Brush the top of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with pepper and salt. Place dough, oil-side down, on grill and cook until the underside starts to turn golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Brush oil on the top-side of the dough and using tongs, flip the dough. Top the crust with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese. Cover the grill and continue cooking for an additional 3 minutes, or until cheese has started to melt. Remove pizza from heat and top with basil leaves. Slice and serve immediately.
