The first time I made grilled pizzas, Lenny thought I lost my mind. The next time I decided to make them, I decided our guests would make their own individual ones. He really thought I lost my mind. Both times, he was wrong. Grilling pizza is super easy and having your guests make their own is a huge hit!
Recently, when we had a warm pre-summer evening, we invited a couple of friends over for pizza and wine. The only thing was, they would be cooking their own pizzas. These friends were newbies to our pizza dinner party concept and they loved it! As this was completely last minute (say 6 pm) we were not prepared, so I had to use what we had in the house. The toppings I came up with was: black truffles, white corn, cilantro, prosciutto, caramelized fennel with red peppers, blue cheese, Parmesan cheese, and eggs.
We have been meaning to give Celine a new recipe using her wonderful truffles and used this opportunity to exactly that. We made luscious prosciutto and black truffle pizza with egg – it was amazing!!! Slightly salty and earthy with the creamiest of the just-cooked egg! If you love pizza, prosciutto, and truffles, this is your pizza!
Thank you for joining us at the Chez Us table; we love having you here.

Grilled Prosciutto & Black Truffle Pizza
Ingredients
pizza dough, homemade or your favorite brand
parmesan cheese
good quality prosciutto
good quality black truffles
organic eggs
black truffle oil
sea salt
fresh cracked black pepper
How To
Roll out your pizza dough to a size that fits on the grill. Lightly grill the dough for a couple of minutes to par-bake it. Remove from the grill.
Top it with Parmesan cheese, prosciutto, and black truffles, and an egg.
Place the pizza back on the grill and cook until the cheese is melted and the egg is cooked to your liking. We like a runny yolk so this takes about 5 minutes.
Before serving drizzle with a little black truffle oil, a sprinkle of sea salt, and fresh cracked black pepper.
Serve.
Eat.

Hello, pizza of my dreams. We used to make homemade pizza every Sunday but then one of the girls gave up cheese for lent (and I stopped eating white stuff, too). Maybe it's time to get back on the pizza-making bandwagon. Great looking recipe, thanks.

Amazing...I agree with Joan, I wonder! And I bet it wouldn't have been half as good.

Looks like breakfast - actually, it looks really delicious. One of my goals is to try pizza on the grill.
