Ingredients
6 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cloves garlic, smashed with the side of a knife
Kosher salt
One 13.8-ounce tube refrigerated pizza dough
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
24 slices pepperoni (about 3 ounces)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 cup warm marinara sauce
Directions
Special equipment:
six 10-inch metal skewers- Put the olive oil in a small saucepan with the oregano, garlic and a pinch of salt. Warm over medium heat just until the garlic turns golden, then turn off the heat and let steep while you prepare the dough.
- Preheat an outdoor grill over medium heat.
- Unroll the pizza dough and roll it out by about 1 inch in either direction. Slice into 6 equal pieces. Stretch and press each piece into an approximately 11-by-2-inch rectangle. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of mozzarella down the center of each rectangle, then fold the dough over the cheese and pinch the seams to seal, making 6 cheese-filled dough "tubes."
- Thread each tube onto a skewer like a snake, alternating after every turn with a slice of pepper and a folded slice of pepperoni. Lay the pizza sticks on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush all over with the garlic-oregano oil.
- Grill the pizza skewers uncovered, turning every couple of minutes so that all sides make contact with the grill, until the dough is fully cooked, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with the Parmesan and serve with warm marinara sauce on the side.
