INGREDIENTS

1 recipe pizza dough *
6 oz. capicola
2 Fresno peppers, diced
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
2 cups pizza sauce
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Olive oil
Dried Italian seasonings

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare the pizza dough as directed. After the final rise, separate the dough into four equal pieces. Roll the dough thinly into circles.

Place even amounts of capicola, ricotta, mozzarella, peppers, tomatoes and sauce in one half of each circle. Gently fold the dough over and clasp shut around the edges.

Brush the tops of each calzone with olive oil, and garnish with shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano and seasonings. Bake in a preheated oven at 450°F for 12-15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Serve a dollop of pizza sauce on the side, if desired.
