FLAMING LOBSTER PIZZA WITH ROASTED YELLOW TOMATO, KALAMATA OLIVES, ROASTED GARLIC, ROASTED RED PEPPER AND BASIL; JICAMA AND CARROT COLE SLAW

Steps:

• To roast garlic: cut off the top and remove the excess papery skin and rub with oil. Season and wrap in foil. Place the foil on medium heat and grill for 40 minutes. Place lobster tails shell side down on a cutting board. Take a chef's knife and cut lengthwise through the tough underside of the tail, but don't cut the flesh. (Shears will also work). Run a skewer through the length of the tail. Grill shell side down over medium heat until the flesh turns opaque, about 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Remove the meat from the shell and slice into 3/8-inch slices.
• Combine yeast, sugar and water in a medium bowl. Stir and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes until foamy. Add flour, basil, chipotle, orange zest, salt and oil. Mix until it holds together. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth. Place dough in a bowl that is lightly oiled. Turn the dough to coat with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest until doubled in size, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch down the dough and divide in 4 equal pieces. Return to lightly floured work surface and roll into 8 inch rounds 1/8-inch thick. Lightly oil, brush or spray, both sides of each round and place on baking sheets. Slide the crusts off the sheets onto the grill directly over medium heat until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Put the crusts back on baking sheet, grilled side up.
• While pizza crusts are hot, brush with oil and add in order: olives, chopped tomato, red pepper, garlic, basil, lobster and cheese. Place pizzas carefully back on the grill for 3 minutes. While pizzas are on the grill, quickly shake 3 ounces vodka from a powdered sugar shaker on each pizza and flame. Remove immediately to serving platters. Flames will go out. Cut and serve.
• In a large bowl, whisk orange juice, lime juice, oil, basil, zests and salt and pepper. Peel the jicama and carrots. Julienne the vegetables in even lengths and 1/8-inch thick. Add vegetables to juice and toss. Allow to sit for 4 hours. Toss and serve.

SHRIMP OR LOBSTER GOURMET PIZZA

Steps:

• Dough: dissolve yeast in water in a large bowl. Allow to set for a few minutes until it begins to foam.
• Add sugar, salt, oil and 1 1/2 c flour and stir gently to combine. Add remaining flour and combine thoroughly. (I usually knead it a little in the bowl too.).
• Let rest for about 30 minutes. Pat out onto large, greased pizza pan.
• While dough is resting, mince garlic and mix with olive oil and allow to set to infuse flavor throughout.
• Spread oil and garlic over entire crust. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Layer the shrimp or lobster meat, tomato, basil and mozzarella as desired and sprinkle with black pepper to taste.
• Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.

LOBSTER PIZZA

Steps:

• Prepare the dough by combining the yeast and water in a large bowl, stirring often until the yeast dissolves. Add the sugar, salt and oil, and mix well. Stir in the flour and mix until dough forms.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board or countertop and knead until it is smooth and elastic, about 10 to 15 minutes. (Up to a half cup of flour can be added, until the dough is no longer sticky.) If using an electric mixer with a dough hook, knead the dough at medium speed for five minutes, slowly adding the extra flour as needed.
• Lightly grease a large bowl with a little olive oil and place the dough inside; turn the dough to coat it evenly. Cover and let rest until it doubles in size, about one hour.
• Just before shaping the dough, grease a 15-inch pizza pan with a little oil.
• Punch the dough down. Flatten it with the palms of your hands and gently shape into a circle, then roll it out into a 13-inch circle and place it into the pan. Make the rim of the dough slightly thicker than the rest, so that no ingredients run over the edge.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• To assemble the pizza, combine the cheeses and sprinkle half of them over the dough. Arrange the lobster evenly over the cheeses and sprinkle with the bacon, tomato, thyme and pepper. Finally, sprinkle with the remaining cheeses.
• Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes, or until the crust and top of the pizza are golden brown. Wait 10 minutes before cutting into slices and serving.

BIBA'S OWN LOBSTER PIZZA

Steps:

• For the dough: Mix first four ingredients and let rise for hour. Add the next three ingredients to above, then add enough all purpose flour to bring dough together into a smooth, soft, but not sticky dough. Let sit out 1 hour. Put in oiled bowl. Cover. Refrigerate overnight. Use the next day.
• For the cream: In boiling salted water, blanch the lobster for seven minutes, then shock it in an ice bath.
• Remove the head for the lobster cream sauce. Remove the lobster meat and dice it into half-inch pieces. Split the lobster body in half and by half again. Place the body in a saucepan and then cover it with the cream. Add the parsley and the tomato and peppercorns. Slowly simmer cream, reducing it by half. Remove cream from heat and strain. Grate the parmesan and the ricotta salada cheese. Slice shallots and garlic, and cook slowly in olive oil till translucent.
• For the pizza: Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Divide pizza dough into five ounce portions, gently rolling into balls. Using a small rolling pin, gently roll the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to an 11 inch circle. Place the dough on a floured pizza peel or flour the back of a small sheet pan and place the dough on that. In a small bowl, place the lobster pieces. Ladle two ounces of the lobster cream into the bowl. Sprinkle the dough with both cheeses. Add lobster and cream. Sprinkle shallots and garlic and some of the olive oil on top. Sprinkle with the scallion rounds. Bake on the bottom of a hot oven, dusted with semolina or flour, or on a pizza stone that has been preheated. Bake until the pizza is golden brown and crisp on the bottom.

LOBSTER PIZZA

Steps:

• Pre-crisp the pizza shell for 15 min. in a 425 oven. Make Special Sauce: Combine all ingredients and taste. (It will be REALLY lemony but that's desirable.) Add more of any of the ingredients as your palate demands. Set aside. Sauté red bell pepper and onion together in 2 T. olive oil until partially caramelized. Set aside. Build the pizza: Brush the shell with a tablespoon or two of olive oil, then drizzle tomato sauce over all. Bring sauce up to the very edge of the shell. Strew cilantro, then the onion-pepper mixture; then place the lobster chunks strategically over the shell. Now salt everything generously. Next, crumble the goat cheese as best you can over everything. Drizzle the Special Sauce over the pizza, then scatter the Romano over everything last. Place back into a 400 oven for another 15-20 minutes.

Refrigerate until ready to cook. Brush a pizza pan lightly with vegetable oil and sprinkle lightly with ground black pepper and kosher salt. (This prep is essential!). 6.
