Ham and Swiss Calzone

 

Dough:

1 1/4 cups warm beer

1 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon olive oil

3 cups bread flour

2 teaspoons yeast

Filling:

4 chopped roma tomatoes

3 cloves garlic, minced

chopped fresh basil

1 cup chopped cooked ham

1 cup shredded Swiss cheese

Choose your favorite method for making dough. While you're waiting, combine the tomatoes, garlic, and basil, set aside.

Divide the dough in two balls, roll one in a circle approx. 12" in diameter. Layer half of the circle with Parmesan cheese, chicken, tomato mixture, and a liberal dose of crumbled feta. Fold crust over and seal the edges. Repeat with other half.

Bake at 350ºF 15-20 minutes. When done, brush the crusts with melted butter.

This makes two good-sized calzones.
