Very Garlic Shrimp Pizza
- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
2 9inch pizzas
ingredients
- 2 pizza dough, 9 inch frozen or home made
- 30 large shrimp, peeled and de-veined with tails removed
- 10 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 1⁄8 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated Fontina cheese or 1 cup mild swiss cheese, such as finlandia swiss cheese
- 2 ounces goat cheese
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- 1⁄4 1/4 cup yellow peppers or 1/4 cup red pepper, diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half
directions
- In a 10" to 12" frypan, heat the cup of olive oil to medium low and add the shrimp and garlic.
- If the shrimp is raw, sauté for 3 minutes on each side.
- If the shrimp is already cooked, sauté for two minutes on each side (all you are doing is flavoring the shrimp with the oil and garlic).
- Remove from the pan and let cool.
- Place your baking stones in the oven and heat to 550ºF.
- On a floured surface, press the dough into a 9" circle (if you are doing home made).
- Place pizza dough on a surface that can slide on the stone or use a pizza peel covered with parchment paper.
- With a pastry brush, coat the dough with the garlic olive oil.
- For each pizza, add half the mozzarella, half the Fontina, and 1/2 the diced pepper.
- Now place 15 shrimp on each pizza and 1/2 the goat cheese in chunks.
- Add half the cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with 1/2 the Parmesan cheese.
- Dribble some of the remaining garlic oil over the pizza.
- When adding the topping, leave a 1" border on the edges so the dough can rise all around the edges.
- It is easy to stretch the dough out on the edges after the toppings are on.
- Pull out an oven rack and using a spatula, slide a pizza onto a stone.
- Rotate the pizza (s) 180º after about 3 minutes.
- Bake for 2 more minutes.
- At 550º, total baking time is 5 or 6 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling.
- Remove, slice, and serve.

Awesome pizza! Garlic shrimp is my favourite, and this recipe is perfect. I used goat's gouda cheese instead of fontina and a sheep fresh cheese similar to mozzarella because I can't have cow's milk cheese. Made this with a gluten free pizza crust. Will make it again for sure! Thanks for posting :)<br/>Made for Bargain Basement.

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes:
? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again.
? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time.
? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK
? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all
? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
