My favourtie Asian buffet is the lunch buffet at Flavour of India. They
don'thave abominations like strawberry-rhubarb pie (not my favourite)
but they do have mango ice sream AYCE. I have to pull a gun on my self
to keep from doing stupid amounts.

I try to never go to the grocery store hungry. That certainly helps keep mr

Title: St. Anselm's Chicken Parmesan Calzone
Categories: Breads, Poultry, Cheese, Sauces
Yield: 4 servings
20 oz Pizza dough
7 Fully cooked crispy chicken
- tenders; sliced *
8 oz Shredded mozzarella cheese
1/3 c Grated Parmesan cheese
3/4 c Pizza sauce
2 tb Butter; melted
Flour; for dough
* The chicken MUST be fully cooked before baking your
calzone. You don't want to risk undercooked chicken.
It's much easier to manage cook times this way.
Set the oven @ 400oF/205oC.
If using frozen chicken tenders, cook them ahead of time
according to the directions on the package. Slice into
smaller strips and set aside.
Meanwhile, roll out the dough into a 12" circle, like
you would pizza crust.
Choose one half, and spread 1/2 cup of pizza sauce over
the dough, leaving a 1" border around the edge. Top the
same half with 1 cup mozzarella cheese, all parmesan
cheese, and chicken tenders.
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling to the
opposite edge, forming a half moon shape. Pinch the ends
together to seal.
Place calzone on a greased baking sheet and baste the
top with melted butter. Use a knife to pierce three 1/2
inch slits in the top of the calzone. Bake for 20
minutes. Remove the calzone from the oven and top evenly
(again leaving a 1" crust around the edges) with 1/4 cup
pizza sauce and about 1/2 a cup of mozzarella cheese.
Bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven, let cool for 5-7 minutes, and
slice into strips for serving.
YIELD: 1 calzone; serving 4 (or more)
