Recipe (serves 2 adults)
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 cloves garlic minced
juice of 1 small lemon
1 small lemon sliced
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 Tablespoons butter
1 green onion sliced
Sprinkle of finely diced parsley for garnish

In a small bowl, mix together well, honey, soy sauce, garlic and juice of 1 small lemon. Add half of the sauce to the shrimp and cover, let marinate in refrigerator for approximately 30 minutes.

In a medium sized skillet add the butter. Add the shrimp and discard this 1/2 of the marinade. Season with sprinkling of salt and pepper. Heat to medium high. Cook until the shrimp turns pink about 2 minutes each side. Add the other reserved 1/2 of the marinade and pour over shrimp. Cook until the sauce just starts to thicken and coats the shrimp, remove from heat. Garnish with green onion, lemon slices and parsley. Serve over white rice. Add side vegetables of your choice (steamed broccoli).

We did the same, I used all purpose king arthur flour. My wife likes a thinner soft crust, little sauce and extra cheese. I like, sausage, mushroom, onion, regular cheese and a thicker soft cust. This time I added a tsp of fresh grated garlic to the sauce on mine. My wife and I really like the pizzas.

Went to sons house for Super Bowl. DS cooked fajitas and I brought some chicken legs in a spicy buffalo wing sauce. DS and DIL had an ice cream cake with a Super bowl theme but DH and I had a sugar free cheesecake that I put together this afternoon.

We decided to save some work for the local pizza shop tonight. Home made pizza.


6 grain, plus corn flour, high gluten flour dough.

Hubby doctored his pizza with jalapenos, bacon, hamburg, red pepper, onions, pepperoni.

I left out the jalapeno, added mushrooms, and fresh basil from my windowsill.

Your pizzas look and aound totally delicious. My wife has one of those clay flat things exactly like you have pictured. I bet it makes for a great crunchy crust.

I did try something different this time. I took a stick of butter and rubbed some of it on to the metal pan to coat it. Then I went over the bottom with a thin layer of olive oil. The crust came out soft and buttery good.
