How to Make Chicken Calzone (Stepwise Photos)
Method
Preheat oven to
180º C. Line a baking tray with butter paper.
To make the sauce,
heat oil in a non-stick pan, add garlic and onion and saute till golden brown.
Add blanched
tomatoes, tomato puree, sugar, salt, black pepper powder, chilli flakes and oregano and mix well. Take the pan off the heat and set aside to cool down to room temperature.
To make the filling, cut
chicken breast into small pieces and put in a bowl. Finely chop red, green and yellow capsicums and put in another bowl.
Place mini pizza bases
on the prepared baking tray. Top each base with 1 tbsp sauce, chicken pieces, capsicum pieces, jalapeno and oregano. Grate pizza cheese on each piece and fold the calzone and seal the edges. Press the edges with a fork to make an impression. Brush some egg wash on them.
Keep the tray in the
preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes.
Take the tray out of
the oven and let the calzones cool a little. Place them on individual serving plates and serve.
