Name: Buffalo Chicken Calzones
Total time: 30 min
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil; 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken; 8 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded (2 cups); 3 ounces blue cheese crumbled (¾ cup); 1/3 cup Frank's RedHot Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce; 1/2 teaspoon pepper; 1 pound pizza dough

Why This Recipe Works

Using shredded rotisserie chicken makes this sometimes-complicated dish quick and easy.

Before You Begin

We used rotisserie chicken for this recipe, but it also works well with any kind of leftover chicken.

Instructions

Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 475 degrees. Line baking sheet with foil and brush foil with 1 tablespoon oil. Combine chicken, mozzarella, blue cheese, hot sauce, and pepper in bowl.

Divide pizza dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll and stretch each piece of dough into 8-inch circle on lightly floured counter. Spread 1 cup chicken mixture on bottom half of each dough round, leaving 1-inch border around edges. Fold top half of dough over filling and crimp edges to seal. Cut two 1-inch slits on tops of calzones and transfer to prepared sheet.

Brush tops of calzones with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Bake until crust is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer sheet to wire rack and let calzones cool for 5 minutes. Serve.
