‘Italian’ Calzone
This classic calzone is super easy to make and tastes so good – these are always the first to go…
INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb. bakery dough
- 1/2 lb. boiled ham (I use Boar’s Head Deluxe Boiled Ham)
- 1/4 lb. large slice pepperoni
- 6 slices Genoa salami
- Italian pepper salad (I use Troinos Gourmet Pepper Salad)
- 1/4 lb. american cheese
- 1/4 lb. mild provolone cheese
- Parmesan cheese for topping
HOW TO MAKE IT
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 15 in. x 10 in. rectangle (about 1/4″ thick)
- Place a row of provolone slices down the center of the rectangle
- Top the cheese with a wide layer of ham (I use about 3 slices across)
- Next place a layer of the pepper salad on the ham
- Top that with the salami, then the pepperoni
- Place a row of american cheese on top of the pepperoni
- Pull one side of dough over the cheese and then overlap that by pulling the other side of dough over – fold up the ends and pinch to seal closed
- Flip the calzone over and place seam side down on a greased baking sheet (I use Pam with Olive Oil) – brush the calzone with the oil from the pepper salad and top off with grated parmesan cheese
- Bake in the oven at 350°F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown
