Ingredients
Pizza dough
Method
1.To make dough: Sift flour into a large bowl with sugar and salt. Stir in yeast. Combine warm water with half of oil. Stir into dry ingredients with a wooden spoon until dough becomes too firm to stir. With lightly floured hands, work dough into a ball, then turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
2.Knead dough for 3-4 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Brush a large bowl with remaining oil. Place dough in bowl, turning to grease all over. Cover with plastic wrap and a clean tea towel. Set aside in a warm place for 1 hour, until doubled in size.
3.Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan-forced). Lightly grease a pizza or baking tray.
4.Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion on a lightly floured surface, into 20cm rounds.
5.In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cheese, pesto and pine nuts.
6.Place mixture over one half of each round, leaving a 1cm border of dough. Brush border with egg.
7.Fold dough over filling, pinching edge to seal. Place onto prepared tray. Brush tops of calzones with remaining egg. Bake 20-25 minutes, until golden and hollow-sounding when tapped. Serve with salad.
Pizza cheese is a combination of grated mozzarella, cheddar and parmesan, and is available from supermarkets. Use mozzarella only if you prefer.
