Boneless Buffalo Chicken Calzone

Submitted by mcdjcd

"A yummy calzone. I make this up after getting tired of paying for one at my local pizza store! This can be made lighter by not breading the chicken."

We followed this recipe exactly using our own homemade pizza dough flavored with Italian Seasoning. I wish I could give this 10 stars!!

YUMMY!!! Loved it! Will probably use a bit more cheese next time and I used only 13 oz of pizza dough (1 can of pillbury) because that's what I had on hand. But delicious!!!
