Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or a baking sheet in the oven to heat.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a piece of parchment paper.
Brush the surface of the pizza dough with olive oil and sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the top.
Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, followed by sprinkling the grated Parmesan cheese.
Arrange the cooked shrimp, calamari rings, and mussels evenly over the cheese layer.
Distribute the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced red onion over the seafood.
Add a sprinkle of salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes for a hint of spice.
Carefully transfer the pizza on parchment paper to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
Once the pizza is done baking, remove it from the oven and sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and lemon zest.
Let the pizza cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy your gourmet seafood pizza.
