Ingredients
For the Dough:
All-purpose flour
Salt
Sugar
Instant yeast
Warm water
Olive oil
For the Filling:

Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Garlic powder
Italian seasoning
Optional Toppings:
Beaten egg (for egg wash)
Grated Parmesan cheese
Extra Italian seasoning
Instructions
-
Make the Dough: In a bowl, mix flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Add warm water and olive oil. Stir and knead until smooth. Let rise for 30 minutes.
-
Prepare the Filling: In a separate bowl, combine shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
-
Shape Calzones: Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each into a 6-inch circle. Spoon filling onto one half of the circle, leaving a border around the edge. Fold dough over and seal edges with fingers or a fork.
-
Air Fry: Brush calzones with egg wash, sprinkle with Parmesan and extra seasoning. Place in air fryer at 375°F (190°C) and cook for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.
-
Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Serve with extra Alfredo or marinara on the side, if desired.
Notes
Store-bought pizza dough is a great shortcut if you’re short on time.
Don’t overfill calzones to prevent leaking—seal edges well.
Rotisserie chicken adds flavor and saves time.
Great for freezing—air fry from frozen with a few extra minutes added.
