Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball Whole wheat pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 8 ounces Shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 8 ounces Scallops, halved
- 2 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, low sodium
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- 1 teaspoon Oregano, dried
- 1 tablespoon Basil, fresh
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet on the middle rack.
Lightly flour a clean working surface and roll out the whole wheat pizza dough ball into a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the rolled out dough to a parchment paper-lined pizza peel or a flat baking tray if you are not using a pizza stone.
In a small skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes or until they just turn opaque. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the surface of the pizza dough.
Evenly distribute the sautéed garlic, shrimp, and scallops over the pizza dough.
Scatter the fresh spinach and halved cherry tomatoes across the top.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese and half of the Parmesan cheese evenly over the pizza.
Season the pizza with dried oregano, freshly cracked black pepper, and optional crushed red pepper flakes for added spice.
Carefully slide the pizza, along with the parchment paper, onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, and lemon zest over the top.
Let the pizza cool for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your delicious and healthy low sodium gourmet seafood pizza!
