INGREDIENTS

4 oz ground chicken

1 large egg

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp dried basil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup mushrooms

1 cup kale

0.25 cup marinara sauce

1 cup fresh raspberries

1 tbsp dark chocolate chips

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a medium bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, garlic powder, dried basil, sea salt, and black pepper until well incorporated.

• 3

  Press the chicken mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a thin and even circle approximately 8 inches in diameter.

• 4

  Bake the chicken crust for 12 minutes until it is firm and the edges are just beginning to turn golden brown.

• 5

  While the crust is baking, heat the extra virgin olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat and sauté the sliced mushrooms and chopped kale until they are tender.

• 6

  Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce over one half of the chicken circle, then top the sauce with the sautéed vegetables.

• 7

  Carefully fold the empty half of the chicken crust over the filling to create a half-moon shape and press the edges gently.

• 8

  Return the calzone to the oven for 5 more minutes to ensure it is heated through and the flavors have melded perfectly.

• 9

  Serve the warm chicken calzone immediately with a side of fresh raspberries topped with dark chocolate chips for a sweet and fruity finish.
