Quick To Fix Cheese Calzone Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for diffused indirect heat by building the hot coals evenly around the perimeter of the grill. Remove the center ring from the grill grate and insert a medium cast-iron skillet. Invert another larger cast-iron skillet over the top. This acts as a pizza oven for your outdoor grill. (If using a gas grill, heat to medium-high heat.)
• For the calzone dough: Add the flour, honey, salt and yeast to a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Then add 1 3/4 cups room temperature water and the olive oil and pulse again until the dough comes together into a rough ball and rides around the bowl. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until a smooth elastic ball forms. Divide the dough into 3 equal pieces and place each in a quart-sized deli container or gallon-sized resealable plastic bag with a drizzle of olive oil. Allow to sit at room temperature for 1 hour, then refrigerate overnight and up to 5 days. This makes enough for 3 calzones. Save the extra dough in the freezer for another time. It will last up to 2 months.
• When ready to use, remove the dough from the refrigerator and take it out of its storage vessel while still cold. Allow the dough to rest at room temperature for 1 hour before grilling.
• For the cheese mixture: In the meantime, combine the ricotta, mozzarella, pecorino and herbs in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• To make the calzones: On a lightly floured surface, roll out 2 balls of dough into 6-inch rounds. Spoon half of the cheese mixture onto each round, spreading it evenly but leaving a 1-inch border, then fold each round over in half. Crimp the edges with a fork or your fingers to seal it and place them onto the inverted cast-iron. Cover the grill and bake for 15 minutes. Use a pastry brush to brush the tops of the calzones with extra-virgin olive oil, cover the grill and bake until golden brown and the dough is cooked through, another 5 minutes.
• Remove from the grill and let sit for a few minutes before digging in!
• (Alternatively, you can place the calzones on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in a 375 degrees F oven until golden brown and the dough is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for a few minutes before eating.)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella and broccoli. Mix well. Season with salt and black pepper.
• Roll dough out to a 12-inch circle. Spread cheese filling over 1 side of circle, to within 1-inch of the edge. Lift 1 side of dough and fold over so that it meets the other side, forming a half moon, and pinch the edges together to seal.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Transfer calzone to a large baking sheet sprinkle the top with cheese. Bake 15 minutes, until puffed up golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Make the filling: Mix the mozzarella, ricotta, basil, scallions, 1/4 cup parmesan and the breadcrumbs in a medium bowl until combined. Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece on a lightly floured surface into a 7-to-8-inch round.
• Spoon one-quarter of the filling onto one half of each dough round, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Lightly brush the edges of the dough with some of the beaten egg; fold the dough over the filling and crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet.
• Brush the calzones with the remaining beaten egg and cut 2 slits in the top of each to let steam escape. Sprinkle the calzones with the remaining 2 teaspoons parmesan, then bake until golden brown and cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce, the salami and giardiniera.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into four portions. Roll each into a 6-in. circle. Spread 1/4 cup sauce over half of each circle to within 1/2 in. of edge; top with 1 tablespoon mozzarella cheese. Fold dough over filling; pinch edges to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet., Brush milk over tops; sprinkle with Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese. Bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• On a large floured surface take your pizza dough and cut it into fourths. Roll out the quartered dough until it forms a circle (think mini pizzas).
• Place 3 slices of the pepperoni, 1/4 cup provolone, 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan on the bottom of a dough circle. Repeat with the remaining circles.
• Brush the edges of the dough with some egg wash; this will act as the glue and seal the calzones. Fold the top of the dough over the filling and press to seal.
• Once all the calzones are stuffed and sealed, brush the remaining egg wash on top of the calzones, sprinkle with salt and bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted inside, 12 to 15 minutes.
• For the quick tomato sauce, heat a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the onions and garlic and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add your tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and cook until the sauce beings to simmer. Remove from heat and add the basil.
• Serve the calzone with a side of the tomato sauce and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella and garlic; Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
• Roll dough out to a 15" circle on a baking sheet that has been lightly dusted first with either flour or cornmeal.
• Spread cheese filling over 1 side of circle, to within 1-inch of the edge and then top with filling of your choice (veggies or cooked meat).
• Lift 1 side of dough and fold over so that it meets the other side, forming a half moon, and pinch the edges together to seal, using a fork to press edges together.
• Brush with olive oil and sprinkle some parmesan cheese over top, to taste.
• Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to release.
• Bake 10-15 minutes, until puffed up golden brown.
• Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
• Serve with some heated marinara sauce to dip, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, mix pepperoni, pasta sauce and mozzarella cheese., On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into four portions. Roll each into a 6-in. circle; top each with a scant 1/3 cup pepperoni mixture. Fold dough over filling; pinch edges to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet. , Brush milk over tops; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and, if desired, Italian seasoning. Bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes.
