I've been searching and experimenting for dishes to serve at a seafood party I'm having this weekend, much to my boyfriend's delight. I made a few things that were good, but then I stumbled upon this recipe from Red Lobster, and we fell IN LOVE with it.
You can get more Red Lobster recipes here, I'm not sure if it's what they sell in their restaurants or just what their chefs have come up with for the at home cook, but YUM! I will definitely be trying more from them!

Here's the recipe...
Lobster Pizza (from Red Lobster)
Bite into a crisp, flaky crust topped with moist lobster meat, tangy tomato sauce, flavorful garlic butter and rich cheese. This dish is perfect as an appetizer or a main course.
Serves 8
Ingredients:
- 1 flour tortilla (per pizza)
- Land O' Lakes™ Roasted Garlic Butter Spread
- 2 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 oz. drained roma tomatoes (approx. 2-3 tomatoes) diced 3/8"
- 2 tbsp. fresh basil cut in 1/8" julienne strips
- 2 oz. lobster meat cut in 1/2" - 3/4" chunks
- 1/2 cup Italian six-cheese blend
Preparation:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees.
- Lightly brush entire topside of tortilla with garlic butter (edge to edge).
- Sprinkle two tablespoons Parmesan cheese over the garlic butter.
- After draining the diced tomatoes, sprinkle evenly over Parmesan cheese.
- To julienne the basil, wash it and shake off excess water. Pick off leaves and stack on top of one another. Using a chef's knife, cut into 1/8" strips. Do not chop. Sprinkle evenly over the diced tomatoes.
- Make sure lobster meat is cut into 1/2" - 3/4" chunks. Portion lobster meat, drain it and then sprinkle it evenly over the tomatoes.
- Sprinkle the Italian six-cheese blend evenly over the diced tomatoes.
- Refrigerate until ready to cook.
- Brush a pizza pan lightly with vegetable oil and sprinkle lightly with ground black pepper and kosher salt.
- When oven is ready, place pizza on pan and cook approximately four to five minutes.
- Remove from pan and cut into eight wedges.
- Squeeze fresh lemon over pizza for extra flavor and serve.
