Enjoy the delicious flavors of BBQ chicken in a convenient calzone. This BBQ Chicken Calzone is packed with tender chicken, BBQ sauce, veggies, and cheese, all enclosed in a golden-brown crust.

Ingredients: 1 pizza dough. 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded. 1/2 cup BBQ sauce. 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced. 1/4 cup bell pepper, diced. 1/4 cup corn kernels. 1/4 cup black beans, drained and rinsed. 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. 1/4 teaspoon onion powder. 1 egg, beaten for egg wash.

Instructions: Preheat your oven to 425F 220C. Roll out the pizza dough into a large circle or rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick, on a lightly floured surface. Spread BBQ sauce evenly over one half of the dough, leaving a border around the edge. Sprinkle shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, red onion, bell pepper, corn, black beans, and cilantro over the BBQ sauce. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Fold the other half of the dough over the toppings to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges to seal. Brush the top of the calzone with beaten egg for a golden finish. Transfer the calzone to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a greased pizza stone. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the calzone is golden brown and the filling is heated through. Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve.
