How to make this Hot and Spicy Shrimp Pizza with Arugula?
Any pizza should always start with a good crust. If you want to make your dough, you can try our preferred pizza dough recipe from Bobby Flay.
For this recipe, I used store-bought to show how easy and quick you can prepare a delicious pizza. The first step is to let the pre-made dough rise at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours to rise outside the refrigerator.
When ready, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Stretch the dough on a prepared floured surface to the desired shape and thickness. Transfer the dough to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and a drizzle of olive oil. Bake the dough for 10-15 minutes at 425 degrees in the middle rack of the oven.
While the pizza is in the oven, prepare your toppings. Season the deveined and cleaned shrimp with the Noubess hot sauce. Chopped the roasted bell peppers and set them aside.
Remove the dough from the oven and first spread the pesto. Add the shrimp, roasted bell peppers, and half of the Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven and bake for another 7-10 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Top with arugula and more Parmesan cheese and serve.
Pizza topping ideas for the Shrimp Pizza
