Instructions
Directions
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a large skillet and heat to medium. Add all the peppers and season lightly with salt and pepper. Saute for 6 to 7 minutes, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a small sauce pan, add 2 cups of water, 1 teaspoon of salt and juice of 1/2 a lime. Bring to a boil, drop fresh shrimp in and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or just until they turn pink. Remove from water and let cool.
- I used my hands to form a 12 inch round pizza, brushed it with oilve oil and pre-cooked it on my stove top grill pan for 2 minutes per side. I did this so that when I cooked the pizza with shrimp topping would not overcook from being in the oven too long. You could also pre-bake it in the oven until golden.
- Once you pre-cook your crust, add the toppings in this order. Sauce, cheese, thin lime slices, peppers and shrimp. Season the shrimp with a little chile limon powder before baking. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven just until cheese has melted. Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime juice. Yields 4 servings.
