Let’s make one of my favorite meals, Broccoli and Shrimp, into a PIZZA! This white pizza topped with broccoli, shrimp, olives, and mozzarella is absolutely delicious.
Broccoli and Shrimp on a Pizza?
Ingredients
- 1 package pizza dough (or pizza crust yeast and necessary ingredients)
- All purpose flour
- 1 cup chopped fresh broccoli
- 15 small or 12 medium fresh or thawed shrimp – peeled, deveined, tails removed
- 1 cup black olives
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/4 cup diced onion (optional)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- Olive Oil
- salt and pepper
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Over a floured surface, roll out your pizza dough to fit your pizza stone. I made my own dough using a quick rising pizza crust yeast and then used my hands to shape the dough to fit my pizza stone. Fold the edges of your dough up to make a crust. Brush the dough with Olive Oil.
2. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of Olive Oil in a skillet over low heat. Add the onions and broccoli. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes and transfer the broccoli and onions to a plate to cool.
3. In the same skillet, add another 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter flavored olive oil. Add the minced garlic and shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the shrimp over medium-low heat until they are pink (5-7 minutes). Be careful not to overcook your shrimp, for they will cook in the oven!
4. Pre-bake your pizza crust for 6-8 minutes, or until the dough is firm to the touch.
5. Remove the pizza crust from the oven and immediately top with the broccoli and the shrimp. Sprinkle a layer of cheese over the ingredients and bake for another 6-8 minutes.
6. Add your remaining cheese and the olives to the pizza and bake until bubbly. I baked mine for 5 minutes! Remove your pizza and allow it to cool before slicing!
