Ingredients:
- 1 lb store-bought pizza dough
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 cup crème fraîche
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 lb medium white shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh jalapeños, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
- Roll out the pizza dough on parchment paper into a 12-inch circle.
- Brush the edges of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder.
- Par-bake the dough in the oven for 5–7 minutes until the edges are just set and slightly golden.
- Pat shrimp completely dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
- Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add shrimp and cook for 60–90 seconds per side until they just turn pink; remove from heat immediately.
- Toss the seared shrimp in lime juice.
- Spread the spicy white sauce (crème fraîche, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and salt) evenly over the par-baked crust, leaving a 1-inch border.
- Layer the mozzarella cheese first, followed by the seared shrimp, sliced jalapeños, and crumbled feta.
- Bake for another 8–10 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and the crust is a deep mahogany brown.
- Remove from oven and immediately garnish with fresh cilantro.
