Place your crusts on nonstick baking sheets. Evenly distribute and spread the pesto over each crust; set aside.
Coat the shrimp with the olive oil and then sprinkle with the garlic and some salt and pepper. In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, sear the shrimp for about 1 minute, flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
