# Steps:

In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir until thoroughly mixed.

Place about ⅓ cup of the chicken Alfredo mixture in the center of each dough square.

Brush tops of calzones with olive oil. Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush egg wash over the calzones for a golden finish.

# Tips:
01 -
Ensure calzone edges are tightly sealed to prevent filling from leaking during air frying
02 -
Use rotisserie chicken for convenience or cook and shred chicken breasts ahead of time
03 -
Don't overfill calzones or they may burst open while cooking
04 -
Let calzones cool briefly before eating as the filling will be very hot
