Blue Cheese Pizza

Ingredients

For 10 people

  • 32 ounce(s) pizza dough
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon(s) Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 large onions, sliced
  • 1/10 tablespoon(s) All-purpose flour, for dusting
  • 8 ounce(s) mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup(s) blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1/10 teaspoon(s) Salt, Kosher
  • 1/10 teaspoon(s) Black pepper, freshly ground
  • 1 cup(s) walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup(s) red grapes, in halves
  • 2 tablespoon(s) flat leaf parsley, freshly chopped

Directions

Remove the pizza dough from the refrigerator 1 hour before you ready to start. In a large sauté pan over medium low heat add 2 tbsp. of olive oil. Add onions and slowly caramelize until brown and creamy about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Heat the grill over medium-high heat and wipe down with oiled paper towels to create a non-stick surface. On a floured surface, roll out each of the pizza dough into an elongated shape, about 12 by 8-inches and about a 1/2-inch thick. Brush with olive oil and grill on both sides until warmed through and grill marked, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet. In a medium bowl, mix together the mascarpone and blue cheese. Smear the cheese mixture over each of the grill pizza crusts. Place in oven for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese melts. Remove from oven and transfer to cutting board or platter. Top with caramelized onions, toasted walnuts and fresh grapes. Season with a few turns of freshly ground black pepper, drizzle with some more extra-virgin olive oil and top with fresh parsley.
