While visiting Vermont this summer, my sister-in-law told us about a pizza from Folino's in Burlington called the "Leeky Chicken". And while I couldn't eat it, I vowed to come up with an equally tasty gluten-free version!
Using one of my go-to frozen pizza crusts (Ugly's Gluten-Free, local to Massachusetts), I decided to make it happen this summer!
The ingredients for the Leeky Chicken on Folino's website are listed as:
olive oil base, three cheese blend, buffalo chicken, leeks, bacon, ranch.
Besides these ingredients, the only other thing you need is your favorite gluten-free pizza crust!
I prefer Ugly's Gluten-Free or Zeia Foods, both local to New England and 100% gluten-free. You could also try Trader Joe's gluten-free pizza dough, Schar gluten-free pizza dough, or for a fantastic homemade option - try making pizza from scratch with No Gluten, No Problem! (You can read my full review of their cookbook right here.)
Follow the directions according to your pizza crust for how to prepare it. Add your the toppings, and bake! The flavor combinations are so damn good. You get the spice from the buffalo chicken, creaminess of the ranch, and cheesy and oniony goodness with the cheese and leeks.
And then there's bacon. Need I say more?
I'll share more details on how to put it together in the recipe notes below. And if you're looking for another wild pizza combo, check out this chicken bacon ranch pizza - a twist on a Subway sandwich in pizza form!
