Ingredients
Pizza Crust
- 2/3 cup water 152 grams, lukewarm
- 1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast or active dry yeast
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 240 grams, King Arthur Unbleached brand
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (35 grams)
Pizza Toppings and Assembly
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic grated
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese grated
- 4 ounces Roma tomato about 2 to 3 tomatoes, diced and drained
- 2 tablespoons basil fresh
- 4 ounces langostino lobster meat cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces and drained
- 1/2 cup cheese shredded Italian six-cheese blend
- vegetable oil for the pizza stone
- salt for the pizza stone, Kosher salt
- black pepper for the pizza stone, Kosher salt
- 1/2 lemon optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F with a pizza stone on the bottom rack, if you're using one.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the lukewarm water with the yeast until the yeast dissolves. Add the flour, baking soda, salt, and olive oil and stir until you have a cohesive, somewhat sticky dough. The dough should be easy to work with and only mildly sticky. If it's sticking to your fingers, add additional flour.
- Divide the dough in half. Pat each half into a disk and place on a lightly floured piece of parchment or waxed paper. Let the dough rest for 30 minutes while the oven is heating.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece of dough into a very thin 12-inch round.
- In a small microwaveable dish, melt the butter with the grated garlic. Stir.
- Lightly brush the pizza rounds with the garlic butter. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the garlic butter and sprinkle the tomatoes evenly over the cheese.
- Julienne the basil by stacking the leaves on top of one another and slicing them into 1/8-inch strips. Do not chop. Sprinkle the julienned basil evenly over the diced tomatoes.
- Sprinkle the lobster meat evenly over the tomatoes and sprinkle the Italian cheese blend evenly on top.
- Place one of the pizzas on a baking pan and bake for about 8 minutes, or until the crust is brown and the toppings are heated through. Remove from the oven and repeat with the second pizza.
- Cut each pizza into 8 slices and serve with lemon wedges, if desired.

Notes
- You can use a pizza stone. Heat the pizza stone in the oven, while the oven preheats. Transfer the rolled-out dough to it and assemble the pizza as directed. Bake in the center of the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the crust is brown and the toppings are heated through.
