This naan pizza is perfect for summer meals, whether the occasion is a spur-of-the-moment cookout with friends or a simple weeknight dinner at home. Although I love making pizza dough from scratch (this Whole Wheat Pizza Dough is my go-to), it does require some advance planning. A few weeks ago, a pizza craving hit, as pizza cravings are inclined to do. It was already late, and I honestly wasn’t in the mood to pull out the flour and measuring cups. I’ve now used naan bread for pizza crust in both the oven and on the grill (see Naan Pizza for an oven recipe). While I love both methods, naan pizza on the grill has the edge for summer. You can use this method for grilled naan pizza for any number of naan pizza toppings, but I do hope you’ll try today’s combination of strawberry, avocado, balsamic chicken, and goat cheese at some point soon. While a savory strawberry pizza is less traditional, when combined with the creamy avocado, juicy chicken, and tangy goat cheese, it is absolute heaven. Plus, if you’ve been impulsively tossing those beautifully ripe summer strawberries into your cart every single time you enter the grocery store as often as I have, this grilled naan pizza will give you a new yummy way to use them.
How to Make Grilled Naan Pizza

The Ingredients
Naan. Soft and fluffy naan crisps up perfectly on the grill, creating a tasty pizza crust in minutes.
Chicken Breast. Tender grilled chicken pieces add wonderful flavor and help make this pizza more satisfying. Balsamic Vinegar. Balsamic vinegar transforms into a thick, sticky, and sweet balsamic glaze. It elevates the pizza in both taste and presentation. Avocado. Creamy deliciousness that tastes wonderful with the strawberries. Avocado is packed with healthy fats and vitamins. Strawberries. Juicy, sweet red jewels that take a savory turn on this scrumptious grilled pizza. They’re also rich in vitamins and fiber. Goat Cheese. The creamy texture and unique flavor of goat cheese make it the perfect addition to this pizza. Basil. A shower of fresh basil is the perfect finishing touch for this pizza.
The Directions
Storage Tips
