Easy Chicken and Sun-Dried Tomato Stromboli
This stromboli features a savory filling of cooked chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese, all encased in a homemade or store-bought pizza dough. The preparation takes about 30 minutes, and it serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 1 pound cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Olive oil for brushing
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Roll Out the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
- Assemble the Stromboli: Spread the chicken filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other, sealing the edges.
- Brush with Egg Wash: Place the stromboli seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with the beaten egg and make a few slits on top for steam to escape.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve: Slice the stromboli and serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
