Shrimp Scampi Pizza

from Food Network.

I don't know what this says about me, but I definitely woke up in the middle of the night thinking about this pizza. I found this recipe last summer (you might remember the Great Pizza Cookoff of 2009? I beat Chris with this recipe). I made it a ton and then completely forgot about it for some reason. Well, until I fall asleep that is...

  • 13 ounces pizza dough
  • 8 ounces shredded mozzarella
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 (1-ounce) cubes butter
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves, chopped

Preheat oven to 550 degrees F.

Stretch pizza dough to make a 16-inch pizza. Top crust with mozzarella, and bake on a pizza pan or pizza stone for 5 minutes. Crust will only be partially cooked.

In a medium skillet over high heat, heat olive oil until very hot, remove from heat, add shrimp and garlic, and toss. Add wine, chicken stock and lemon juice, bring to a simmer. Add butter, and heat until melted, then remove from heat. Season mixture with salt and pepper. Shrimp will finish cooking on pizza.

Spread mixture over crust and finish baking until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, let cool a few minutes before cutting.
