Shrimp Scampi Biscuit Pizza
Ok, hear me out… Shrimp scampi meets Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits with lots of cheesy goodness… and we call it Shrimp Scampi Biscuit Pizza?!?!
You as interested as me? Let me show ya how!!
You can easily find the Red Lobster biscuit mix in most grocery stores to use as the crust.
And feel free to mix it up with any toppings of choice, but this simple shrimp scampi was pure cozy comfort food bliss for me 🙂
How to make Scrimp Scampi Biscuit Pizza
First prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuits according to the package directions, the only change we made was adding 2 extra tablespoons of water.
I had a sleepover with my sweet grandson who wanted to help with this part.
I’d say he did an amazing job 🙂
After mixing the dough, spread it evenly on a greased baking sheet.
I had the best luck using the back of a spoon, and it does take minute to even out.
Depending on the size of your baking sheet it may or may not stretch to fit the whole sheet.
Bake the crust in a 400-degree oven for 15 minutes while you prepare to make the shrimp scampi.
I have a pound of shrimp that I chopped, some sliced green onions, lemon wedges, and plenty of freshly minced garlic.
Set a skillet over medium heat and add a stick of butter, the shrimp, and some Old Bay seasoning.
And cook this for about 2 minutes.
Next squeeze in lemon juice, add the garlic, and most of the green onions.
And cook 2 more minutes.
Pour the shrimp and butter mixture evenly over the biscuit crust.
Finally sprinkle both mozzarella and parmesan cheese over top and bake in the 400-degree oven for 10 to 12 more minutes.
Just make sure the crust is cooked through, and the cheese is melted and ooey gooey.
Garnish the Shrimp Scamp Biscuit Pizza with the remaining green onions and enjoy 🙂
So cheesy, garlicy, and quite the fun splurge meal!
