Ingredients
For the Pizza:
- 1 ready-made pizza dough I used one from the Rustic Crust brand
- 2 tablespoons ready-made tomato sauce
- 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- Shrimp al Aglio e Olio (recipe follows)
- 1 heart of palm 9 slices**
- 4 cherry tomatoes sliced in halves
- Palm oil to sprinkle over the topping optional** (SEE SUBSTITUTIONS on the notes)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or parsley chopped
- Lemon wedges to serve on the side of the pizza squeeze lemon over pizza before eating
For the Shrimp al Aglio e Olio:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pinch dried red pepper flakes
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 8 jumbo raw shrimp peeled, deveined, and tail off
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro or parsley chopped
Instructions
To Prepare the Shrimp al Aglio e Olio:
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the red pepper flakes and minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add the shrimp and sauté until it starts to turn pink (about 1-2 minutes). Reduce heat to medium, and add salt, ground pepper, and lemon juice. Let cook for another 30 seconds.
- Remove from heat and stir in cilantro/parsley. Reserve to use in the shrimp pizza topping.
Cup of Yum
To Assemble the Pizza:
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF (220º C).
- Place the pizza dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the tomato sauce over the pizza dough and sprinkle the mozzarella on evenly.
- Arrange the shrimp al aglio e olio, hearts of palm, and tomatoes on the pizza dough. Drizzle the toppings with a little bit of palm oil (optional).
- Bake for about 10 minutes (or follow instructions on the package of the pizza dough).
- Remove from oven, sprinkle the chopped cilantro/parsley, and serve immediately with wedges of lemon on the side. Pizza can be accompanied by a fresh salad and a glass of white wine. Enjoy!
Notes
- SUBSTITUTIONS: Both the lemon and the palm oil make this pizza highly flavorful. If you don'yt have palm oil, mix about 2 tablespoon of olive oil with ½ to 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric. The flavor will not be the same yet it will still be quite yummy.
