Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups chicken breast
- 6 slices ham
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 lb pizza dough
Supporting Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Warm your oven to 400°F and prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet. Dust your work surface with flour to prevent sticking.
- Stretch the pizza dough into a rectangular shape about 12 inches long and 8 inches wide. Make sure the surface is even and smooth.
- Spread 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard across the dough, leaving a half-inch border around the edges. Add 2 tablespoons mayonnaise if you prefer extra creaminess.
- Arrange 2 cups of cooked chicken breast evenly across the mustard-covered surface. Layer 6 slices of deli ham directly over the chicken.
- Cover the ham with 6 slices of Swiss cheese, ensuring complete coverage from edge to edge.
- Carefully roll the dough from the long side, tucking and pinching the edges to seal in the fillings completely.
- Transfer the rolled stromboli seam-side down onto your prepared baking sheet. Brush the entire surface with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, and 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered surface.
- Bake at 400°F for 22-25 minutes until the exterior turns golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick portions.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced chicken and ham to ensure even cooking and easy rolling.
- Keep the dough edges sealed tightly to prevent ingredients from leaking during baking.
- For a lighter version, swap regular pizza dough for whole wheat or gluten-free alternatives.
- Experiment with different cheese types like provolone or Gruyère for varied flavor profiles.
