Ingredients

  • 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, quartered
  • 2 avocados, preferably Hass, pitted and coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
  • 1/3 cup fresh lime juice (about 3 limes), plus lime wedges for serving (optional)
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • Cornmeal Pizza Dough (page 209)
  • 4 ounces coarsely grated pepper Jack cheese (about 1 1/3 cups)

Method

  • Toss the onion, tomatoes, and avocados with oil and lime juice in a medium bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Heat a grill until medium-hot.
  • Generously brush one side of the pizza dough with oil; grill, oiled side down, until the underside is golden brown and the top begins to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Quickly brush the top with oil; flip the crust.
  • Top with a layer of cheese.
  • Grill until melted and the crust is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes more.
  • Slide the pizza with a large spatula onto a cutting board.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Top with avocado mixture.
  • Dot with sour cream and serve with limes, if desired.
  • Repeat to make more pizzas.
