Grilled Pizza with Thyme, Goat Cheese and Peppers

1 medium-size pizza dough (from a local pizza parlor), room temperature
2 Tbl. chopped thyme, plus 1 sprig for garnish
5-8 oz. goat cheese
1 red pepper, cut into thin slices
1 yellow pepper, cut into thin slices
olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

1.    Heat coals or gas grill to medium-low heat. 

2.    Prepare all ingredients before cooking pizza dough: chop thyme, cut peppers and have cheese ready.

3.     Lightly sprinkle work surface with cornmeal or flour.  Place dough in middle and roll out until ¼” thick.  Brush or spray both sides generously with olive oil and set aside until ready to grill.

4.    Over medium-low heat, on an oiled grate, gently place dough in the center of the grate.  Cook for 2-3 minutes with lid closed.  If dough bubbles, poke with fork to release air and flatten crust. 

5.    When bottom is brown (like a piece of toast), remove from grill.  On cooked side spread goat cheese right up to the edge of the crust.  Sprinkle with thyme and arrange peppers (spoke style) on top. 

6.     Cook other half of pizza over indirect heat - using a gas grill, turn center burner off; using charcoal, push coals to side so they are not directly under pizza.  Place pizza in the center of the grate and cook with lid closed until bottom is browned, about 5-8 minutes. 

7.    Remove from grill, garnish with thyme sprig and season with salt and pepper to taste.  Slice (with pizza wheel) and serve immediately.
