Ingredients

  • 1 pound (450 g) pizza dough

  • 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded

  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine:

  • Shredded chicken

  • Alfredo sauce

  • Parmesan cheese

  • Half of the mozzarella

  • Garlic powder

  • Italian seasoning

  • Salt and pepper

Mix until well combined and creamy.

3. Roll Out the Dough

Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces.
Roll each portion into a circle or oval, about 6–7 inches wide.

4. Assemble the Calzones

Spoon the chicken Alfredo mixture onto half of each dough round, leaving space around the edges.

Add extra mozzarella on top for extra cheesiness.

Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges by pressing with your fingers or crimping with a fork.

5. Brush and Bake

Brush each calzone with beaten egg to create a shiny, golden finish.

Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling inside.

6. Garnish

Optional: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan after baking.

7. Serve

Let the calzones cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm and melty!

These Baked Chicken Alfredo Calzones are rich, cheesy, and incredibly satisfying. With simple ingredients and minimal prep time, they make a fantastic homemade alternative to takeout.
