Anyone have any really good pizza recipes?
I am so tired of the normal Italian pizzas. I have made a greek pizza, bbq pizza, taco pizza and buffalo chicken pizza. I would love any other ideas.
Answers:
Shrimp Pesto Pizza
1 (16-ounce) Italian pizza shell or make your own
Pesto*:
2 tablespoons pine nuts (pignoli)
2 cups lightly packed fresh basil leaves
1 cup (4 ounces) freshly grated Parmesan or pecorino cheese
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 to 2 garlic cloves
Toppings:
8 ounces cooked shrimp
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided use
1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
For Pesto: Lightly toast pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat until golden, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
In a food processor or blender, combine basil, cheese, oil, pine nuts and garlic; whirl until pureed.
For Pizza: Preheat oven to 450°F.
Place pizza shell or dough on baking sheet; spread with pesto. Top with 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Top with shrimp, olives and green onions; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
