Scale
Ingredients
- 1–pound pizza dough, homemade or storebought
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
- 1 pound deli-sliced pastrami or corned beef
- 1 cup sauerkraut, rinsed
- 1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 1/2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped bread-and-butter pickles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450F. If using a pizza stone, preheat the oven for 20-30 minutes.
- Divide the pizza dough into 4 even balls. Starting with one ball, roll it on a lightly floured surface into a 9-inch circle. Sprinkle 1/4 of the cheese on half of the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Layer on 1/4 of the pastrami, followed by 1/4 of the sauerkraut.
- Fold the dough over the filling, then pinch the edges together to seal. Genlty fold the edges over to completely seal the filling. Brush the top with olive oil and cut 3 vents in the center. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Bake until browned, 18-22 minutes. Let cool briefly.
- To make the sauce, combine the mayonnaise and ketchup. Stir in the pickles. Serve the sauce along side the calzone for dipping.
