Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 475°F. Roll out the 1 lb pizza dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch round and transfer to a baking sheet.

  2. Step 2

    Spread 0.5 cup pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle 1 cup of the 2 cups mozzarella over the sauce.

  3. Step 3

    Arrange the 0.5 lb shrimp over the cheese, then top with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil.

  4. Step 4

    Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted, about 12-15 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Remove from oven and scatter the 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves over the hot pizza. Slice and serve.
