Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 pound medium shrimp, deveined with tails removed
1/2 teaspoon oregano
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling dough
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 pound frozen pizza dough, thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 cup deli mozzarella (part-skim, low-moisture), grated
Red pepper flakes, for sprinkling
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Sprinkle the shrimp in a bowl with the oregano, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the butter and let melt. Add the flour and cook, 1 minute. Add the garlic and continue to cook, whisking, 1 minute more. Whisk in the milk and cook until very thick, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup Parmesan and remove from the heat. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Preheat the broiler to high.
  • Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly-floured work surface into two 10-inch ovals. Brush the grill pan with the remaining tablespoon olive oil. Grill the dough on both sides until there are grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the crusts to a sheet tray. Add the shrimp to the grill pan and grill on both sides until fully cooked, pink and opaque, about 4 minutes total. Spread the white sauce on the dough in an even layer. Scatter the shrimp over the sauce. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan. Place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly, keeping a close eye so it doesn't burn, 2 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the red pepper flakes and parsley on top before serving.

I adapted this rich treat from a friend's seafood enchilada dish. The thick creamy cheese sauce is an ideal match for the scallops, shrimp and imitation crabmeat. Plus, it's special enough for guests and can be made in a hurry.

SEAFOOD PIZZA



Seafood Pizza image

This was created to mimic the wonderful seafood pizza we used to enjoy at Pizzeria Uno in Cincinnati Ohio. It's especially easy with a boboli crust but making your own crust may taste better. I recommend using the fake crab rather than canned, but fresh crab would be best. It's rich and delicious. I love to dip it in cocktail sauce. YUMMY!!

Provided by By Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Entree

Time 2h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 package regular active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (105°F to 115°F)
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar
12 uncooked medium fresh shrimp, in shells
1 cup pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 oz)
1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese (2 oz)
8 anchovy fillets in oil
1/2 lb bay scallops
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Steps:

  • In large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in half of the flour, the oil, salt and sugar. Stir in enough remaining flour to make dough easy enough to handle.
  • Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead about 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place dough in large bowl greased with shortening, turning dough to grease all sides. Cover and let rise in warm place 20 minutes.
  • Gently push fist into dough to deflate. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 48 hours, deflating dough occasionally.
  • Move oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 500°F. On lightly floured surface, press or roll dough into 12-inch round. Place on ungreased pizza screen or in 12-inch perforated pizza pan. Press dough from center to edge so edge is thicker than center.
  • Peel shrimp, leaving tails intact. Spread pizza sauce over dough to within 1/2 inch of edge. Sprinkle cheeses over sauce. Arrange shrimp, anchovies and scallops on cheeses. Sprinkle basil, pepper and garlic over seafood. Bake about 10 minutes or until shrimp are pink and firm, scallops are white and cheeses are melted.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood for the best flavor. Frozen seafood can be used, but fresh seafood will yield a more flavorful sauce.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Seafood cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of seafood. This will give your sauce a more complex flavor. Some good options include shrimp, clams, mussels, and calamari.
  • Sauté the seafood in olive oil before adding it to the sauce. This will help to brown the seafood and add flavor to the sauce.
  • Use a flavorful white wine. A dry white wine will add acidity and brightness to the sauce. Sauvignon blanc or Pinot Grigio are good options.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta or pizza.

Conclusion:

Seafood pizza sauce is a delicious and flavorful sauce that is perfect for any seafood lover. It is easy to make and can be used on a variety of dishes, including pasta, pizza, and seafood stews. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a seafood sauce that will impress your friends and family.
