Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Pizza

Summer is here!!! Although it’s not official on the calendar, I think we can all agree it’s official in our hearts. It’s time to brush off the grill and start cooking outdoors several nights each week. Although our typical go-to grill items are chicken, steak, and veggies, I like to throw in a curveball now and again, like grilled desserts or grilled pizza!

Teriyaki Pizza

Pizza is a fabulous on the grill, because the crust cooks quickly (faster than in a standard oven) creating a smoky blistered quality like traditional wood-burning pizza ovens. You can throw pizza straight onto the grates, but I feel you get a better result by heating a large baking stone on the grill. Pizza topping combinations are seemingly endless. Although we love traditional Italian toppings, I get very excited to experiment with unique flavor options. Teriyaki Pizza is a new favorite… After all, why be bland when you can be awesome! Today’s Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Pizza recipe is packed with awesomeness like: zingy Soy Vay® Veri Veri Teriyaki Marinade found at Walmart, chopped chicken, fresh pineapple chunks, crisp salty bacon, and scallions. This simple blend of flavors creates and fusion of intrigue for you tastebuds with very little effort. By using the Soy Vay® Veri Veri Teriyaki to marinade the chicken, and as the sauce for the pizzas, you get an intense flavor that is hard to resist. These Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Pizzas are sweet, salty, savory, tangy, and oh so appealing!

How to Make Chicken Teriyaki Pizza

Start by cutting a 1-pound ball of pizza dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece out into a 8 inch circle. It’s easiest to move small pizzas on and off the grill, rather than one large pizza. Then spread a little Soy Vay® Veri Veri Teriyaki Marinade over the crust. Toss cooked chopped chicken with teriyaki marinade as well and sprinkle it over the pizzas, followed by fresh pineapple, bacon, scallions, and a little shredded cheese. It’s best not to place too many toppings on the pizzas. A little sprinkling goes a long way. Use a baking sheet or pizza paddle to slide the pizzas onto a hot baking stone set over the grill. Within 3 to 5 minutes, you will have fresh sizzling Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Pizza with a crispy crust.
