For the stromboli:
- 1 sheet refrigerated pizza dough (13.8 oz / 390 g)
- 1 cup (150 g) cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 6 slices deli ham
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) Dijon mustard or honey mustard
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)
For the topping:
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds or Italian seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prepare the dough:
- Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a rectangle (approximately 12×14 inches).
- Spread the filling:
- Spread the mustard evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
- Layer the ham slices across the dough. Add the chicken evenly on top of the ham. Layer the Swiss cheese slices over the chicken.
- Roll the stromboli:
- Starting from one long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the edges to seal and tuck the ends under the log. Transfer the roll to the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down.
- Brush and top:
- Brush the stromboli with the beaten egg. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or Italian seasoning if desired.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
- Slice and serve:
- Let the stromboli cool for 5 minutes before slicing into thick pieces. Serve warm with a side of honey mustard or marinara sauce.
Notes
- Substitute Swiss cheese with provolone or mozzarella if desired.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven.
- Add cooked bacon or sautéed spinach for extra flavor.
