This is easily my favorite recipe that I cook. If I were to ever open my own restaurant, this recipe would be why. Hope you enjoy friends!
Serves: Will make 2 calzones 2-4
Prep time: 10
Cooking time: 30
What you'll need:
a frying pan - for sausage - optional
pizza pan/stone
a cutting board, or non stick board - the counter will also work
rolling pin
olive oil/oil
italian seasoning
sausage, peperoni, ham, mushrooms, bell peppers, whatever toppings you like, etc
premix pizza dough - Betty Crocker is a good one
pizza sauce - I'll think about giving my recipe in the next couple of weeks
16oz of mozarella cheese - you can definetly get more if you would like extra cheese.
Directions:
Preheat oven 400
1. Wash and prepare any of your toppings if necessary. For instance, dice your peppers and brown the sausage.
2. Add 1/4 of a cup of warm water into the pizza dough mix.
3. Add a tablespoon of italian seasoning to the mix.
4. Add a tablespoon of oil into mix and stir, add more water if needed.
5.
Take a piece of dough the size of a baseball and spread out on
sheet/board. Placing a little oil on your hands helps the dough not
stick to and the counter, or saving a little flour to place dough on
does the trick as well.
6. Either using your hands or the rolling pin, spread the dough out in a circle.
7. Spread a meager amount of pizza sauce for your base. If you put to much it will make the bread soggy.
8. Add modest portion of cheese and desired topping.
9. Fold over and pinch the ends of the dough to ensure they will not reopen while cooking.
10. Place on pizza pan and place in over for 8-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
11. Take out of the over and serve with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
