Best Wing Chicken Calzone Recipes

BUFFALO CHICKEN CALZONE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 410 degrees F (210 degrees C). Grease a pizza pan.
• Place chicken into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a bowl and shred with two forks.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chicken and Buffalo wing sauce in the hot butter until chicken is coated and heated through, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Turn pizza dough out onto a generously floured surface. Roll dough into a 12-inch round. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and spread 1 cup mozzarella cheese in the center of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Spread chicken mixture over cheese; top chicken mixture with remaining 1 cup cheese.
• Fold pizza dough in half and pinch edges together to seal. Transfer calzone to prepared pizza pan and brush top with remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 17 to 20 minutes.

BUFFALO CHICKEN CALZONE

Steps:

• Start by cooking your breaded chicken tenders - store bought will take about 20 minutes. When they are done, turn the oven up to 450 degrees.
• Stretch out your room temperature pizza dough to a round shape and let rest for about ten minutes.
• When the dough has puffed up a bit, slather chunky blue cheese dressing on one half. You may want to put the dough on a non-stick baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal BEFORE adding fillings when making a small one - you will definitely want to if making a large!
• Toss the crispy chicken tenders in hot sauce of choice (I love Frank's).
• Put your sauced chicken tenders on top off the blue cheese dressing. If you don't want to use the chicken tenders whole, cut them in smaller pieces before tossing in the hot sauce.
• On top of the saucy fingers, pile on the grated mozzarella and white cheddar cheese.
• make sure your top edge goes OVER and under the bottom edge - just pushing down on top will not do it. Push down your folded over edge all along the side.
• Make two or three small air holes on top of the calzone.
• Put the calzone into the oven for 12-15 minutes - check at 12 minutes, and sprinkle some grated cheese on top. When you remove from the oven, let it cool down for at least 5 minutes.
