These are perfect for weeknight dinners and game day parties!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 16 ounces pizza dough
- 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 8 slices deli Swiss cheese
- 8 slices deli ham
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
- ¼ cup cornmeal
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll or stretch the dough into a 6 to 8 inch oval. Brush the surface of the dough with the Dijon mustard, leaving a 1 inch border around the edges.
- Layer two slices of cheese, two slices of ham and ½ cup shredded chicken on the dough leaving a 1 inch border around the edges.
- Fold the dough over the chicken and press the edges together to seal. Pinch tightly to avoid the cheese leaking out during baking.
- Repeat with the remaining dough and other ingredients.
- Place the calzones on a baking sheet dusted with cornmeal.
- Brush the surface of the calzones with the egg.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Serve immediately
Notes
- To freeze: Assemble the calzones as instructed (up to step 5) and place on a clean baking sheet. Freeze for 4 hours and then wrap individually in plastic wrap. Wrap again in foil and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
