    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, sift the all-purpose flour, then add the dry yeast, salt, and sugar. Mix well.

    2

    Pour in the lukewarm water and olive oil, and start kneading. Knead until you have a smooth, elastic dough. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

    3

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips, then season with a little olive oil and minced garlic.

    4

    In a hot skillet, cook the chicken breast strips over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown.

    5

    Divide the risen dough into two equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a circle.

    6

    Spread tomato sauce over one half of each dough circle, then top with the cooked chicken strips, grated mozzarella, and cheddar cheese.

    7

    Sprinkle with oregano, basil, and a pinch of black pepper.

    8

    Fold the other half of the dough over the filling, then press the edges together to seal the calzone.

    9

    Brush the top with beaten egg, and use a fork to prick a few holes to allow steam to escape during baking.

    10

    Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
