Yield: Makes 2 ea. 10–12 in. pizzas |
Ingredients
8 oz. large shrimp, 16/20 to a pound, peeled, deveined cut in half lengthwise
2 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. kosher salt
2 ea. 8 oz. Wood Stone Dough balls
4 oz. Pizza Sauce
1 ea. jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
4 oz. mozzarella cheese, grated
2 Tbsp. chives, minced
1 ea. lemon, cut into 4 wedges
Preparation
Oven Temperature: 550-580 degrees
- Flame Height: 4.4
- Pre-heat a shallow skillet in front of flame for 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl toss the shrimp with the garlic, oil, and salt.
- Toss the shrimp in the hot pan and roast them in front of the flame for 1 minute. The shrimp should be just turning pink. They will finish cooking on the pizza.
- To assemble pizza, place 2-oz. of the sauce in the center of each pizza and use a circular motion to spread it to about 3/4-in. from the edge.
- Distribute 8 shrimp halves evenly around each pizza.
- Scatter the jalapeno over each pie and sprinkle with cheese.
- Flame Height: 3.6
- Transfer the pizza onto a large peel and land it just inside the doorway. Once the pizza begins to color nicely on the side closest to the flame (about 2-3 minutes), rotate the pizza using the utility peel, 180-degrees and move it closer to the flame. Once the side closest to the flame colors, and the top and bottom of the pizza is balanced (30 seconds to 1 minute) remove the pizza from the oven using the utility peel. Transfer the pizza to a cooling screen for about 1 minute to prevent steaming and then move it to a cutting board to slice.
Sprinkle with chives and serve with lemon wedges.
