Two classic Italian dishes are about to collide in the form of Riko's Pizza's new Clam Fra Diavolo pie.
A limited-time offering, the new Clam Fra Diavolo pie is kind of like a cross between a pizza and the classic Italian dish of linguine with clams. The pizza starts with either Riko's signature or gluten-free crust, which is then topped with red sauce, a blend of cheeses, hot cherry peppers, sliced red onion, and clams marinated in oil and garlic. The whole thing is then finished with a pinch of dried oregano and a drizzle of olive oil. After baking, Riko's add some fresh chopped basil and grated Parmesan cheese on top for good measure. As Rico Imbrogno, Co-Founder and CEO of Riko's Pizza, puts it, "Our Clam Fra Diavolo pie has outrageous flavor that brings everything you love about this beloved Italian favorite to our super thin-crust, tavern-style pizza."
