Shrimp and Cilantro Pesto Pizza

This recipe is an adaptation of a recipe I recently read that sounded good.
I was looking for a quick fix and decided to use naan flatbread to prepare this recipe rather than a homemade pizza crust.
You could also use an already baked pizza crust for ease of preparation.
Adjust amounts of ingredients depending on the size of crust you are using.

1 clove GARLIC
1/4 c. EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
1 handful CILANTRO
SALT, to taste
1/2 lb. SHRIMP, shelled and deveined
2 SCALLIONS, thinly sliced
PARMESAN CHEESE, shaved
DRIED CHILI FLAKES, to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Place crust on a baking sheet or cast iron skillet.

Buzz together the garlic, olive oil and cilantro in a food processor and add salt to taste.
Spread this over your flatbread or pizza crust.

Sauté shrimp in a little bit of olive oil for about 2 minutes on each side, or until pink and arrange on top of cilantro pesto.

Sprinkle with scallions, Parmesan cheese and dried chili flakes.

Bake for about 10 minutes until crust is lightly browned and cheese is melted. This will vary depending on the type of crust you use.

Enjoy!
