Ingredients

• 2 filets (around 6 oz each) salmon fillet
• 1 pound store-bought pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 cup Caesar salad dressing
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 2 cups (chopped) romaine lettuce
• 0.5 cup (halved) cherry tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh basil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden and just cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

On a floured surface, divide the pizza dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a 6-inch diameter circle.

Step 4

Brush each circle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Spread about 2 tablespoons of Caesar dressing over each pizza dough circle, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 6

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over each pizza base.

Step 7

Flake the cooked salmon into bite-sized pieces and distribute over the pizzas.

Step 8

Bake the pizzas in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

Step 9

While the pizzas are baking, toss the chopped romaine lettuce and halved cherry tomatoes in a bowl with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and the remaining Caesar dressing.

Step 10

Once the pizzas are done, remove them from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Top with the dressed romaine and tomato mixture.

Step 11

Sprinkle each pizza with Parmesan cheese and freshly chopped basil.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Caesar Salmon Pizzas!
