Shrimp Scampi Pizza

Ingredients

  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp red hot pepper flakes
  • 1 lb extra large shrimp, peeled and deveined with tails removed
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • ⅓ cup dry white wine
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley, plus more for topping
  • Whole wheat dough (⅓ of recipe below or store-bought)
  • ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ½ oz. shaved parmesan cheese

Homemade Whole Wheat Dough

  • ½ Tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1 ¾ cup lukewarm water
  • ½ Tbsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and let cook for about 1-2 minutes. Add in red pepper flakes and cook for 30 more seconds.
  • Add shrimp to the skillet in an even layer and season with a little salt and pepper. When shrimp start turning pink (about 2 minutes), flip and cook another minute or so on the other side. When cooked through, remove shrimp to a bowl and set aside.
  • Add lemon juice and wine to skillet and sprinkle in parsley. Let sauce cook for a few minutes to reduce a bit.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll dough out into a thin 12-inch round. Transfer round to a foil-covered 12-inch pan. Brush dough lightly with lemon/parsley reduction.
  • Sprinkle feta cheese and parmesan over the pizza and top with the shrimp.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes until crust starts to brown and cheese is melting. Top with additional chopped parsley, slice, and serve.

Homemade Whole Wheat Dough

  • In a large bowl, combine yeast and water. Let sit for 3 minutes. Stir in salt, honey, and olive oil. 
  • Using a wooden spoon, stir in whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour until just blended. If dough is still wet, add in a bit more flour, 1 Tbsp at a time. 
  • Cover the bowl with a towel and set aside at room temperature for about two hours, so dough can rise. Once risen, either use dough or refrigerate if not using right away.
