Shrimp and Pesto Pizza with Goat Cheese

I made this for dinner the other day and just had to take a few pictures and share.

I started by sprinkling the shrimp with some garlic and herb seasoning, and just lightly sauteed it, about 30 seconds on each side. You don't want to cook it all the way through because its going to go into the oven. Then I rolled out my pizza dough--I use the pre-made garlic and herb pizza dough from Trader Joe's.



I just used a pie tin to cook it in but I really want to get this Bialetti 3 Piece Pizza Stone Set! My friend has it and it makes awesome pizza crusts!

I spread some prepared pesto onto the dough, spread the shrimp across it, sprinkled it with mozzarella and spooned some scoops of goat cheese on top and baked it for about 20 minutes at 400 degrees, until the cheese starts to brown on the edges. And voila, cheesy, pestoy goodness.
