BBQ Chicken Calzones

This recipe is extremely easy to throw together, has the perfect combination of flavors and is one your entire family will love!

Ingredients 

  • 12 frozen Rhodes dinner rolls thawed to room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 3/4 cup BBQ Sauce may need more depending on preference
  • 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 medium red onion finely choppped
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Place one frozen Rhodes dinner roll in each cup of a muffin tin. Cover with a light towel and let thaw to room temp and rise slightly.
  • Roll each roll out as far as it can go. You want them pretty thin.
  • Spread 2-3 tablespoons of your favorite BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray's) on 6 of the 12 rolled dough pieces, leaving about 1/4-1/2 inch border of dough on the outside.
  • Place as much cooked and shredded rotisserie chicken as desired (about 1/4 cup for each calzone).
  • Place 1-2 tablespoons of chopped red onion over the tops of the chicken.
  • Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of cilantro over the top of the onion.
  • Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese (about 1/8-1/4 cup per calzone).
  • Make sure none of the filling touches 1/4-1/2 inch dough boarder you left around the outside of your 6 calzones. Place a rolled out dough on top of each of your calzones and seal it up. Make sure it is sealed TIGHTLY so that none of the filling leaks out.
  • Place the 6 calzones on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until golden in color.
