Pizza with Peppered Shrimp, Canadian Bacon, Mushrooms and Feta Cheese

Yet another recipe from the wine lovers cookbook. I adore this thing. The cookbook has a very yummy sounding pizza dough recipe, but I didn't have the time last night to make it. Maybe next time.

Pizza with Peppered Shrimp, Canadian Bacon, Mushrooms and Feta Cheese

3/4 cup tomato sauce
2 cloves chopped roasted garlic
4 tsp chopped fresh dill (2 tsp dried)
1/8 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup diced Canadian bacon
3/4 cup sliced crimini or shiitake mushrooms
1/4 chopped roasted red peppers
2 oz crumbled feta cheese
10 large shrimp, shelled and deveined
Red pepper flakes, crushed

In a small mixing bowl, whist together tomato sauce, roasted garlic, dill, salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and lemon juice. Spread evenly on pizza crust. Top pizza with Canadian bacon, mushrooms, peppers and feta cheese. Sprinkle 1/4 tsp black pepper on to shrimp and space them evenly on pizza. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes.

Preheat oven to 450ºF. Bake pizza on the top rack of the oven for 16 to 18 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Slice into pieces and serve.
