Calzone Filling

Method

Calzone Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers, onion, and mushrooms. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.

  2. 2

    Combine Filling Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with the diced grilled chicken and shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix well to combine all ingredients evenly.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out pizza dough on a floured surface into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter.

  4. 4

    Fill the Calzone

    Place an even amount of the chicken and vegetable mixture on one half of the dough. Be careful not to overfill.

  5. 5

    Seal the Calzone

    Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and pinch the edges together to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Transfer the calzone to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve with marinara sauce for dipping if desired.
