Description

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 8 ounces raw shrimp, peeled & deveined (I used 31-50 count)
• 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (more to taste)
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 8-9 flatbread (or thin pizza crust)
• 4 ounces Italian cheese blend, shredded (I used a blend of mozzarella, Romano, and Parmesan)

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 425. (see note)
• Melt the butter and heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan. Add the shrimp, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium high heat, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is pink and the garlic is fragrant, being very careful not to burn the garlic (about 5 minutes). Toss with the lemon juice.
• Tilt the saucepan to the side so that the liquid pools. Spoon it onto the flatbread and brush it so it mostly coats the crust, making sure to hit the edges (this will help it brown).
• Sprinkle the cheese over the top and then place the shrimp. I like to tuck them into the cheese so it holds them in place.
• Bake for 7-9 minutes (or check your flatbread package for time instructions.
