Easy Chicken Pesto Stromboli Roll Recipe

This stromboli features a filling of seasoned chicken, pesto, and mozzarella cheese, all rolled up in pizza dough and baked until golden brown. The recipe takes about 45 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

1 pound pizza dough
1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
1/2 cup pesto sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, pesto, mozzarella, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Roll Out the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Add the Filling: Spread the chicken and pesto mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Roll the Stromboli: Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a log shape. Pinch the seams to seal and tuck the ends under.
Brush with Egg Wash: Place the stromboli on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the stromboli is golden brown and cooked through.
Slice and Serve: Allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
