Corn And Tomato Pizza Recipes

CORN AND TOMATO PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Place the pizza dough on the grill. Let cook for 1 minute, and then flip with tongs. Move to a cooler spot on the grill (about medium heat). Brush with the olive oil and top with the corn, tomatoes and mozzarella. Cover the grill and cook until the cheese melts and the dough is crisp, about 4 minutes. Top with the scallions and basil.

CORN WITH TOMATOES AND HERBS

Steps:

• Cut the corn kernels off the cobs and transfer to a medium bowl. Using the back of the knife, scrape the cobs to release the corn milk into the bowl.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the corn and corn milk, 1 tablespoon water, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook until the kernels are tender,3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the chives, basil and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter; toss to combine.

GRILLED PIZZA WITH CHEESY CORN, FRESH TOMATOES, AND BASIL

Steps:

• Let dough sit at room temperature (in package) 4 hours.
• Puree corn, Parmesan, garlic, 2 tablespoons oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor until smooth with small chunks.
• Spread remaining oil on a baking sheet or pizza pan. Place dough on pan, and stretch to an even thickness, turning to coat both sides with oil. Let rest 1 hour, then restretch.
• Preheat grill to medium. Season dough with salt, and transfer to grill, making sure to keep dough flat and even. Cover grill, and cook until dough is just charred on bottom, 5 to 6 minutes, checking frequently.
• Flip dough. Spread corn mixture on dough, and top with tomato slices. Season with salt, and top with mozzarella. Cover grill, and cook until toppings are warmed through and mozzarella has melted, 5 to 6 minutes. Top with basil, and serve.

PIZZA WITH TOMATOES, CORN, SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Turn oven to 350 degrees.
• Remove sausages from their casings or cut into bite-size pieces and cook in nonstick skillet until brown.
• Seed and chop the whole peppers.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet until it is very hot; reduce the heat to medium high and add the oil. Saute the peppers in the hot oil until they begin to soften.
• Wash, trim and halve tomatoes. Squeeze tomatoes in your hands to get rid of some of the seeds and juice. When peppers are softened, stir in tomatoes and continue cooking over medium heat while you scrape kernels from the corn and chop the basil.
• Place the tortillas directly on the oven rack and bake until they are brown and crisp, just a couple of minutes. Watch carefully because they will bake quickly.
• When the tomatoes are soft and some of the liquid has cooked away, add the corn, basil and anchovy paste and cook over low heat for a couple of minutes.
• Pit olives and chop and stir into pan while corn cooks. Season with pepper.
• When tortillas are cooked, remove from the oven and top two of them with half of the topping mixture and serve. Keep topping warm and spoon over the remaining tortillas when you are ready for seconds.
