BBQ Chicken Calzones


I love barbecue flavored foods, but this calzone can be filled with pizza ingredients, or with whatever you like!

Calzone Dough Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 tbsp sugar
2 1/4 tsp yeast
3 tbsp oil
1 tsp salt
2 1/2 c flour

Instructions:
Combine the yeast with 1 cup of warm water. Allow the yeast to bubble (it usually takes about five minutes.)

In a mixer, combine the yeast water with the rest of the ingredients. Only put in about half the flour and let it mix in before adding the remaining flour. When mixed well, knead on a floured surface. Let it rise for ten minutes.

Divide dough into four pieces. Roll each piece out into a circle. Fill the middle with filling.

Calzone Filling Ingredients:
2 medium chicken breasts or 1 large one
1/2 cup chopped scallions
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup shredded cheese (any kind you like)
1/4 cup sour cream

Instructions:
Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and fry in a pan with the onions. Combine the cooked chicken, onions, scallions, barbecue sauce, cheese, and sour cream in a bowl. Put in the middle of the calzone dough.

Fold the dough in half over the filling, and seal the edges with your fingers.

Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes.
