Ingredients

One 28-ounce can San Marzano tomatoes
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons ground pepper
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn

Instructions

Special equipment: a pizza stone; a pizza peel
For the pizza sauce: Work the tomatoes through a food mill into a large bowl. Mix in the oil, pepper and salt. Gently stir in the basil.
For the chimichurri: In the bowl of a food processor add the basil, oil, oregano, parsley, vinegar, lemon juice and garlic, and process until the mixture achieves a rustic, chunky texture. Season with salt and pepper.
For the pizza: Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 550 degrees F for at least 20 minutes.
Stretch the dough into a 10-inch round disk on a floured pizza peel. Spread 4 ounces of the pizza sauce evenly onto the dough and sprinkle the Pecorino Romano, garlic and oregano over the top. Dress with the lobster, shrimp, squid and clams and a drizzle of olive oil.
Slide the pizza from the peel onto the pizza stone and bake until bubbly and golden brown, 2 to 5 minutes. Top the cooked pizza with 2 ounces of the chimichurri, then slice and serve.
