Calzone with chicken and spinach topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups shredded baked chicken
- 1.5 tbsp. grated mozzarella
- 1 package (280g) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed out of water
- 0.5 cup chopped baked sweet peppers
- 450 g of chilled pizza dough, brought to room temperature
- Premium flour for working with dough
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- Warm marinara sauce, for filing
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 230°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, mozzarella, spinach, roasted red pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
- Divide the pizza dough into 4 pieces; cover with plastic wrap until ready to use. Working with one piece at a time, form the dough into a ball and dust it with flour, then on a lightly floured work surface, roll it out into a circle 7 inches in diameter. Spoon a quarter of the chicken mixture onto one side of the dough circle, then fold half the dough over the filling and crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Brush the calzones with beaten egg and make a few slits in the top of each. Bake until golden and puffy, about 25 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce.
