Directions
1.
Preheat
oven
to
500
degrees.
If
using
a
pizza
stone
for
baking,
preheat
your
stone
on
the
bottom
rack
of
your
oven
for
at
least
1
hour
prior
to
baking
the
pizza.
2.
Rinse
the
shrimp;
look
over
them
thoroughly
to
make
sure
they
are
clean
and
all
shells,
tails
and
veins
have
been
removed.
3.
Clean
the
zucchini
and
slice
them
into
thin
rounds.
4.
Clean
and
seed
the
bell
peppers.
Slice
them
into
thin
strips.
5.
Clean
and
peel
the
garlic.
Chop
it
finely.
6.
Place
the
garlic
and
olive
oil
in a
skillet
over
medium
heat.
Sauté
the
garlic
until
it
begins
to
sizzle.
7.
Add
the
white
wine
to
the
pan
and
simmer
for
2
minutes.
8.
Place
the
peppers
and
zucchini
in
the
pan
with
a
pinch
of
salt.
Cover
and
cook
for
8 -
10
minutes
or
until
the
zucchini
soften
slightly.
If
the
liquid
in
the
pan
evaporates
too
quickly,
add
water
as
needed.
9.
Remove
the
pan
from
the
heat
and
set
aside.
10.
Dice
or
shred
the
mozzarella
into
small
pieces
and
set
aside.
11.
Roll
out
and
shape
the
pizza
dough
to
your
desired
shape
and
thickness
-
the
thinner
the
dough,
the
crispier
the
pizza
crust.
If
using
a
pizza
peel,
place
semolina
flour
or a
bit
of
cornmeal
on
your
peel
and
then
place
the
pizza
dough
on
the
peel.
If
baking
the
pizza
in a
pan,
make
sure
the
pan
is
non-stick.
Otherwise,
line
your
pan
with
parchment
paper
to
prevent
the
pizza
sticking
to
the
pan.
12.
Ladle
several
spoonfuls
of
tomato
sauce
evenly
over
the
dough,
and
then
distribute
the
mozzarella
over
the
sauce.
Add
the
zucchini
and
pepper
mix
over
the
cheese
and
top
with
the
raw
shrimp
and
gaeta
olives.
13.
Place
the
pizza
onto
the
baking
stone
or
on
the
bottom
rack
of
the
oven
and
cook
for
15 -
20
minutes
or
until
the
crust
is a
deep
golden
brown,
the
sauce
is
bubbly,
and
the
shrimp
have
cooked
through.
14.
When
the
pizza
has
finished
baking,
remove
it
from
the
oven
and
let
cool
for
5 -
10
minutes.
15.
Slice
and
serve
hot.
Notes
For
additional
flavor,
just
before
serving
the
pizza,
drizzle
a
little
bit
of
high
quality
extra
virgin
olive
oil
over
the
top.
