Time 30m

Yield 2 9inch pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 10

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 cup yellow peppers or 1/4 cup red pepper, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half

Steps:

  • 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.
