Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
While your crust is baking, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil at medium high in a small sauce pan. Sautee the onion and 2 cloves of garlic for 5 min or until translucent. Add the ragu sauce and bring to a simmer. Turn to low, put a lid on and stir occasionally.
Heat the remaining oil in a sautee pan, add remaining 2 cloves of garlic and shrimp. Cook for 2 - 3 minutes or until done. Season with salt and pepper.
When crust is finished baking, remove from the oven. Top with sauce, shrimp, and shredded parmesan. Return to oven for 10 minutes.
In a bowl, toss arugula with a small amount of olive oil, salt and pepper. When the pizza is out of the oven , top with fresh arugula, cut and serve.
