Garlic Shrimp and Asparagus Flat Bread

A simple and GREAT, oh, and quick dinner!   I used raw jumbo shrimp and naan for the crust.  If you use cooked shrimp,  you'll just want to wait to put it in the pan until the last minute or two.

Add one tablespoon of butter and two tablespoons of olive oil to a sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1 clove of chopped garlic and 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Then chop asparagus into 1/2 inch slices and add to pan. 
Now is a good time to preheat your oven to 500 degrees.
Toss the asparagus for 2-3 minutes and add shimp. Squeeze 2 tablespoons of lemon juice over the top.(Again, if using cooked shrimp wait a minute or two before adding) and toss. Cook until shrimp is just cooked through. Add mixture on top of naan and drizzle pan sauce over the top. Grate parmigiano cheese and shredded Morzerella over the top. Add into oven and cook for 5-7 minutes until cheese is melted. If you have a pizza stone, you can cook it on that for a crisper crust.  I like it a little gooey so I did not. Top with chopped dill and eat!!!!

Well, how can I explain the person who has a very seldom updated blog about food and one about navigating life? Visit the food and enjoy, but now my focus is on trying to help me understand myself and hopefully help other's along the way.
