Boneless Buffalo Chicken Calzone Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 410 degrees F (210 degrees C). Grease a pizza pan.
• Place chicken into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a bowl and shred with two forks.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chicken and Buffalo wing sauce in the hot butter until chicken is coated and heated through, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Turn pizza dough out onto a generously floured surface. Roll dough into a 12-inch round. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and spread 1 cup mozzarella cheese in the center of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Spread chicken mixture over cheese; top chicken mixture with remaining 1 cup cheese.
• Fold pizza dough in half and pinch edges together to seal. Transfer calzone to prepared pizza pan and brush top with remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 17 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine pizza sauce and 2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce; set aside. In a large skillet, cook chicken and celery over medium heat in butter for 3-5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink; drain if necessary. Stir in Cajun seasoning and remaining hot pepper sauce; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until heated through. , Unroll pizza dough; divide each portion in half. On a floured surface, roll each into an 8-in. circle. Spread pizza sauce mixture over half of each circle to within 1 in. of edges. Top with chicken mixture and cheeses. Fold dough over filling; pinch edges to seal., Sprinkle greased baking sheets with cornmeal. Place calzones over cornmeal. Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Measure the imprinted stitching on an approximately 12-by-8-inch football-shaped baking pan and cut the provolone into 2 long strips and 7 shorter strips to imitate; set aside. Spray the football pan with the cooking spray.
• Unroll 1 tube of dough and cut in half widthwise. Bake one of the halves on the prepared baking sheet until lightly done, about 8 minutes. (Reserve the other half of the dough.) Use a knife or kitchen shears to cut the baked dough into a football shape slightly smaller than the pan.
• In a medium bowl, toss together the Buffalo sauce and shredded chicken.
• Unroll the remaining tube of dough and drape into the prepared football pan, letting the extra dough hang over the sides. Fill with half of the chicken mixture, half of the grated Swiss or mozzarella and half of the scallions. Top with the football-shaped crust. Add the remaining chicken mixture, grated cheese and scallions. Add the blue cheese. Top with the reserved uncooked dough half. Use a knife to trim the excess edges of dough, leaving a little extra to pinch the 2 edges of dough together. Put the pan on a baking sheet.
• Bake until the crust is just beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and invert the football pan onto the baking sheet to unmold the calzone. Drizzle the crust with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic salt. Continue to bake until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Arrange the strips of provolone to mimic the football stitching; the heat of the calzone will slightly melt the cheese and adhere it to the football. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Slice and serve with ranch dressing for dipping, and celery sticks on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oil to med heat in frying pan.
• Dip chicken pieces into milk or egg wash, then coat in bread crumbs.
• Fry them in pan, turning occasionally for approximately 5 minutes or until done (when juices are clear).
• Drain on paper towels.
• Roll out pizza dough to size of a pizza pan.
• Place chicken on one side of dough.
• Sprinkle hot sauce over chicken.
• Cover with cheese and add more hot sauce if desired.
• Fold other half of pizza dough over chicken.
• Press down at edges to seal.
• If desired, top pizza dough with some extra cheese.
• Bake at 350°F for approximately 25-30 minutes or until pizza dough is browned.
• Cut into pizza shaped wedges, serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine flour, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in a large bowl. Whisk together the egg and milk in a small bowl. Dip each piece of chicken in the egg mixture, and then roll in the flour blend. Repeat so that each piece of chicken is double coated. Refrigerate breaded chicken for 20 minutes.
• Fry chicken in the hot oil, in batches. Cook until the exterior is nicely browned, and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes a batch.
• Combine hot sauce and butter in a small bowl. Microwave sauce on High until melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Pour sauce over the cooked chicken; mix to coat.

Steps:

• Start by cooking your breaded chicken tenders - store bought will take about 20 minutes. When they are done, turn the oven up to 450 degrees.
• Stretch out your room temperature pizza dough to a round shape and let rest for about ten minutes.
• When the dough has puffed up a bit, slather chunky blue cheese dressing on one half. You may want to put the dough on a non-stick baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal BEFORE adding fillings when making a small one - you will definitely want to if making a large!
• Toss the crispy chicken tenders in hot sauce of choice (I love Frank's).
• Put your sauced chicken tenders on top off the blue cheese dressing. If you don't want to use the chicken tenders whole, cut them in smaller pieces before tossing in the hot sauce.
• On top of the saucy fingers, pile on the grated mozzarella and white cheddar cheese.
• make sure your top edge goes OVER and under the bottom edge - just pushing down on top will not do it. Push down your folded over edge all along the side.
• Make two or three small air holes on top of the calzone.
• Put the calzone into the oven for 12-15 minutes - check at 12 minutes, and sprinkle some grated cheese on top. When you remove from the oven, let it cool down for at least 5 minutes.
