Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made crust or homemade ball (about 12-inch size) Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 12 medium-sized pieces Raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 2 cups (lightly packed) Fresh spinach leaves
- 1.5 cups (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons (optional) Crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (for rolling dough, if needed) All-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and, if using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.
If using pre-made pizza dough, sprinkle a clean surface with a little flour and roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a pizza pan or a parchment-lined flat surface for easy transfer.
In a small skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the raw shrimp to the skillet, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until just pink. They will finish cooking in the oven, so do not overcook. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.
Brush the pizza dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, spreading evenly across the surface. Then, spread the sautéed garlic evenly over the oil.
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the pizza dough as the base layer.
Evenly distribute the fresh spinach leaves over the mozzarella, followed by the partially cooked shrimp. Sprinkle with the remaining 0.5 cups of mozzarella and the grated Parmesan cheese.
If desired, sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
Carefully transfer the pizza (with parchment paper, if using) to the hot pizza stone or bake directly on the pizza pan in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your Simply Delicious Shrimp and Spinach Pizza!
