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!!

Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo image

This take on a classic Italian-American recipe is super easy to make. Slightly reducing the cream and adding a hefty dose of cheese means you don't have to use flour to thicken the sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
12 ounces fettuccine
Olive oil, for tossing
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 16), peeled and deveined, tails removed
Freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta, and boil according to package directions until al dente, tender but still slightly firm. Strain, and toss with a splash of oil.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp in a single layer on a large pie pan or paper plate, and pat them with a paper towel until completely dry. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and invert the plate of shrimp over the skillet so the shrimp fall into the pan all at once. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until the underside is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, and cook until fully pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, and add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce warm.
  • Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the shrimp and cooked pasta, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood: Fresh shrimp and crab will give your pizza the best flavor. If you can't find fresh seafood, frozen seafood is a good option, but make sure it's thawed before using.
  • Cook the seafood properly: Overcooked seafood is tough and chewy. Shrimp should be cooked until it's pink and opaque, and crab should be cooked until it's tender and white.
  • Use a good quality Alfredo sauce: The Alfredo sauce is the base of this pizza, so make sure it's flavorful and creamy. You can use a store-bought Alfredo sauce or make your own.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizza: When you're adding the toppings to the pizza, don't overcrowd it. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy.
  • Bake the pizza at a high temperature: This will help the pizza cook evenly and give it a crispy crust.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and crab Alfredo pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun weekend lunch. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a pizza that's sure to impress your family and friends.
