Szechuan Chilli Prawn Pizza

Loving Crust Gourmet Pizza at the moment but of course they are not the best thing for the waistline no matter how delicious they are.  So I decided to attempt making my version of one of my favourites, Szechuan Chilli Prawn Pizza.

We are no strangers to home made pizzas as you probably all know by now but we do love experimenting.  My take on this pizza was flavoursome and overall I was happy with the outcome.


Szechuan Chilli Prawn Pizza

Serves: 2
ProPoints per serve: 8

200 grams raw king prawns
1 teaspoon chilli flakes
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise
1 lebanese bread, 100g
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 red capsicum, sliced
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
8 button mushrooms, sliced 
2 shallots, sliced diagonally
4 baby bocconcini, quartered
1/4 cup sweet chilli sauce

Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Rinse prawns and pat dry.  Mix together chilli flakes and pepper.  Sprinkle over prawns and toss to coat.  Set aside.

Preheat grill, place zucchini on a flat layer on a baking tray.  Grill until golden. Set aside.

Place lebanese bread on a pizza tray,  cover with tomato paste.  Layer zucchini, mushrooms and capsicum on base.  Top with prawns and bocconcini.  Sprinkle with shallots.

Bake in oven for 10 - 15 minutes until prawns are cooked through and cheese is melted.

Drizzle with sweet chilli sauce.
