Baja Shrimp Grilled Pizza Recipes

GRILLED SHRIMP PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Toss the shrimp and onion in a bowl with the olive oil and oregano. Season with salt and pepper.
• Stretch the pizza dough into a roughly 8-by-10-inch rectangle. Lightly brush the grill with olive oil. Lay the dough on the grill and cook until the top begins to bubble and the bottom is marked, about 3 minutes. Remove with tongs and put cooked-side up on a cutting board. Brush with olive oil.
• Grill the shrimp and onion, turning, until the onion softens and the shrimp are lightly charred, about 5 minutes. Top the crust with the shrimp and onion, then slide the pizza back onto the grill. Top with the tomatoes and feta, cover and grill until the dough is cooked through and the cheese is soft, about 5 more minutes.
• Carefully transfer the pizza to the cutting board. Sprinkle with the parsley and cut into pieces.

SEAFOOD PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the shrimp in a bowl with the oregano, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper.
• Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the butter and let melt. Add the flour and cook, 1 minute. Add the garlic and continue to cook, whisking, 1 minute more. Whisk in the milk and cook until very thick, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup Parmesan and remove from the heat. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly-floured work surface into two 10-inch ovals. Brush the grill pan with the remaining tablespoon olive oil. Grill the dough on both sides until there are grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the crusts to a sheet tray. Add the shrimp to the grill pan and grill on both sides until fully cooked, pink and opaque, about 4 minutes total. Spread the white sauce on the dough in an even layer. Scatter the shrimp over the sauce. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan. Place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly, keeping a close eye so it doesn't burn, 2 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the red pepper flakes and parsley on top before serving.
