Homemade Shrimp Scampi Pizza Recipe

A speedy, simple, and incredibly tasty shrimp pizza with a garlic butter sauce!

Shrimp Scampi is one of my favorite dishes! You can't go wrong with shrimp cooked in butter and garlic—it's quick and easy to make! Typically, it's served over pasta, but it's also fantastic as a pizza! Just cook some shrimp in butter and garlic, then spread it on pizza dough, add cheese, and bake until everything is melted and golden brown. It's delicious! I like to top the shrimp scampi pizza with fresh chopped parsley and squeeze lemon juice on it right before serving!
