Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the yeast and 1/3 cup of the water, then stir in the sugar.
• Let the mixture stand until it becomes foamy, about 10-15 minutes.
• Add the remaining water, the whole wheat flour, 1 cup of the white flour, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and the salt.
• Stir or knead until combined into a soft dough.
• Place on a floured board and knead for 4 minutes, adding in more flour as you go, to make a dough that is soft but not sticky.
• Place in a greased large bowl and cover with a kitchen towel.
• Put in a warm place and let rise until doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
• For the toppings:.
• Whisk together the lemon juice, 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil, the thyme (crush a bit between your fingers), and the black pepper.
• Briefly marinate the shrimp in this mixture (don't leave it more than a few minutes, or it will start to "cook" a bit, like ceviche).
• Clean, cut off the ends, and quarter the bell peppers and tomatoes.
• All broilers are a bit different, so adapt the following instructions to what you have.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Spray a broiler pan with olive oil.
• Place bell pepper pieces skin side up on broiler pan.
• Place tomato pieces pulp side up on broiler pan.
• Place shrimp on broiler pan.
• If not everything fits at once, you may need to work in batches.
• Broil the whole pan about 4 minutes.
• Turn the shrimp over.
• Broil about 4 minutes more, until the shrimp are fully cooked (opaque throughout).
• Remove everything and let cool.
• Put the roasted tomatoes, the chopped garlic, the oregano, and the red pepper flakes in a blender and puree for a few seconds; set this tomato sauce aside.
• The skin of the bell peppers will have blistered and charred; when cool, pull it off.
• Chop the shrimp and bell peppers into small pieces.
• Back to the dough: For a 10 inch skillet, divide the dough into 4 pieces - you can also make more smaller pizzas. Roll out each piece on a lightly floured surface until it is the size of your skillet. Stack between pieces of wax paper; at this point you can cover them tightly and store in the refrigerator until you need them.
• To assemble the pizzas:.
• Heat a cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
• Reduce heat to low and brush with olive oil.
• Place a round of dough in the skillet, cover, and cook for 1 minute - the dough will rise and have bubbles in it.
• Remove the lid and then cool over low heat until the bottom of the crust is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Turn the crust over.
• Brush very lightly with olive oil.
• Add 1/4 cup tomato sauce, and spread around with the back of a spoon.
• Sprinkle with 1/4 of the finely crumbled feta cheese.
• Sprinkle with shrimp, peppers, capers, and olives; add additional red pepper flakes if desired.
• I like the crust a bit charred on the bottom - use your judgement.
• Repeat with additional pizzas.
