Pizza Skewers


This week we are doing recipes kids can make.

I am trying to find the easiest ones that are also

tasty and different. These look delicious and easy enough to make.

This recipe serves 4.


What you'll need:

1c marinara sauce for dipping

grated parmesan cheese

crushed red pepper flakes

1/3c olive oil

2T italian seasoning

kosher salt

all purpose flour for dusting

1/2lb pizza dough

1 pint grape tomatoes

12oz cooked sweet italian chicken sausage links,

sliced 1/2" thick

1lb fresh mozzarella sliced thin

1/2c fresh basil leaves

skewers


Create:

Soak 8 skewers in water for 30 minutes.

Prepare a grill skillet over medium heat. Cut a 12" square

of aluminum foil.


Stir together the oil, Italian seasoning and 1 tsp of

salt in a large bowl. Dust a work surface with flour.

Roll the dough into a rectangle about 11x6x1/4".

Using a pizza wheel or a knife, cut the dough into 1" strips

then into 1" squares. Add the dough squares, tomatoes

and sausage to the seasoned oil and toss gently to coat.


Thread the skewers alternating sausage, tomatoes and

dough squares. Leave 1/2" of the skewer on both

ends empty. Each skewer should have 4 pieces of

each sausage and dough and about 3 tomatoes.


Grill the skewers until tomatoes have gone soft and

the dough has started to puff. Put the prepared foil

square on the pan (if too big, tear some off). Place the

skewers onto the foil and top with the mozzarella cheese.

Cook until the dough is done and the cheese has melted.


Divide the skewers among 4 plates, tear basil leaves over the tops and serve with marinara.


These recipes, the kids can put together, pending age

they can cook themselves or with help.
