Number Of Ingredients 18

1 lb large shrimp, peeled, deveined, and halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2-3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 (12 inch) Boboli pizza crusts
1/2 medium sweet onion, cut into thin wedges (Walla Walla or Vidalia)
1 small red bell pepper, seeded, deribbed, and cut into long thin strips
2 cups coarsely shredded mozzarella cheese
10 fresh basil leaves, torn into large pieces
1 large garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 (16 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained and blotted dry with paper towels
3 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
4 large fresh basil leaves, torn into large pieces
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • To make the roasted red pepper pesto (this is optional but highly recommemded), process the garlic and salt in a food processor until garlic is minced.
  • Add in the roasted red peppers, parmesan, basil, olive oil, sugar, and red pepper flakes; process until smooth; use immediately or transfer to a covered container and refrigerate for up to 1 week.
  • To make the pizza: position an oven rack in the center of the oven and place a baking stone (if using one) on the rack; preheat oven to 500°.
  • In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  • Remove the boboli crust from the plastic bag and save the packet of tomato sauce for another time.
  • Place the pizza crust on a pizza screen, pizza pan, or rimless baking sheed, or on a pizza peel ready to slide directly onto the baking stone.
  • Spread the pesto evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a 1-inch border.
  • Scatter the onion and bell pepper over the sauce.
  • Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top.
  • Scatter the basil over the cheese; place the shrimp in a single layer over the cheese.
  • Place the pizza in the oven on the rack or stone; bake about 10-12 minutes, until the crust is crisp and a deep golden brown, and the shrimp are pink and slightly curled.
  • Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately.
