Garlic dip and a trio of melting cheeses create the base for this three-cheese garlic prawn pizza, offering a salty, creamy contrast to fresh, succulent seafood. By layering mozzarella, crumbled feta, and halloumi, you get a beautiful blend of textures that turn golden and crisp in the oven while keeping the prawns tender.
Using a garlic-infused base eliminates the need for a traditional red sauce, letting the savory profile of the cheese take center stage. The Italian herbs provide a subtle, earthy finish that cuts through the richness of the halloumi and feta, making each bite feel balanced and satisfying.
This quick dinner option works well for weeknights when you want something more interesting than a standard takeaway. It comes together with minimal fuss, meaning you spend less time prepping and more time enjoying a hot, homemade pizza right out of the oven.
Read Full StoryIf you love the combination of shellfish and aromatics as much as I do, this pizza is a perfect starting point. For nights when you want something a bit more comforting, you can easily swap the crust for a zesty prawn linguine that highlights those same bold flavors. Alternatively, if your kitchen needs an impressive side dish for a dinner party, my recipe for a cheesy garlic pull-apart bread offers a similar punch of garlic and melted cheese that pairs perfectly with any seafood spread.
