Ingredients

Scale

Dough

1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

Filling

2 cups cooked chicken breast (sliced or shredded)
6 slices deli ham
6 slices Swiss cheese

Spread

2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp mayonnaise (optional)

Toppings

1 tbsp melted butter
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Prepare the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll the pizza dough into a large rectangle, about 12×14 inches, ensuring an even thickness for consistent baking.
Assemble the Stromboli: In a small bowl, combine Dijon mustard and mayonnaise if using. Spread this mixture evenly over the rolled dough, leaving about 1 inch from the edges clear. Then layer Swiss cheese, ham, and cooked chicken evenly across the dough surface.
Roll the Stromboli: Fold in the sides of the dough and carefully roll it tightly from one long edge to the opposite, sealing all seams and ends to form a secure log shape.
Add Toppings: Place the stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle garlic powder, dried parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the surface.
Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the crust turns golden brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve: Slice into portions and serve warm with your choice of sides like a fresh salad or dipping sauces such as honey mustard or marinara.

Notes

You can substitute the cooked chicken breast with leftover rotisserie chicken for ease.
Mayonnaise is optional in the spread but helps add moisture and richness.
Ensure the dough seams are well sealed to prevent filling leakage during baking.
Letting the stromboli rest after baking improves sliceability and helps the filling settle.
Use parchment paper for easier cleanup and to avoid sticking.
