Ingredients

1/4 cup (60 millilitres) olive oil

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1 quantity basic pizza dough

1 cup (150 grams) shredded barbecued chicken

2 cup (200 grams) grated mozzarella

1/2 cup chopped parsley

1/4 cup (35 grams) chopped sun-dried tomatoes

50 gram button mushrooms, sliced

Method

1.Preheat oven to 220°C or 200°C fan. Line two baking trays with baking paper. In a bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of oil with garlic.

2.Divide dough into eight. Roll each piece into a ball, then pat each out to a 16cm round. Brush with a little oil mixture. In a bowl, combine chicken, mozzarella and parsley. Sprinkle chicken mixture over half of each piece of dough. Top other half of four pieces with sun-dried tomatoes and other half of remaining four with mushrooms. Fold dough over filling, pressing edges together to seal.

3.Place calzone on prepared trays. Brush with remaining oil and season. Bake 30 minutes, until bases are golden and crisp and filling is heated through. Serve.

When sealing the edges of the calzone, use two different patterns to differentiate the mushrooms calzone from the sun-dried tomato ones.
