Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3 large leeks, sliced crosswise 1/4 inch thick and separated into rings (white and tender green portions only)
2 cups shredded skinless roasted chicken meat (from 2 legs or breast)
2 cups Fontina cheese, shredded
1/3 cup spicy oil-cured olives, pitted and coarsely chopped
salt & freshly ground black pepper
crushed red pepper flakes, to taste (optional)
1 lb pizza dough, at room temperature
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500°F
  • Preheat a pizza stone or generously oil a large baking sheet.
  • Melt the butter & crushed red pepper flakes in a large skillet.
  • Add the leeks and cook over moderate heat until just softened but still bright green, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
  • Stir in the chicken, half of the Fontina and the olives and season with salt and pepper, and crushed red pepper (amount depends on how hot you like it).
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll or stretch the dough to a rough 14-inch round.
  • Transfer the dough to a floured pizza peel or rimless cookie sheet, or to the oiled baking sheet.
  • Spread the chicken and leek mixture on the pizza, leaving a 1-inch border of dough.
  • Brush the border with the olive oil.
  • Sprinkle the remaining Fontina over the top and season with pepper.
  • Slide the pizza onto the hot stone, if using, and bake for about 10 minutes on the stone or 16 minutes on the baking sheet, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  • Transfer the pizza to a rack and let cool slightly before serving with a crisp California Sauvignon Blanc and a salad of mixed baby greens.

This pizza was amazing! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the leeks added a nice flavor. The mozzarella cheese was melted and gooey, and the crust was crispy. I would definitely make this again.
