# Steps:
01 -
Preheat air fryer to 190°C for approximately 3 minutes.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, Parmesan, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until fully incorporated.
03 -
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each pizza dough round and divide each into 2 equal pieces, yielding 4 dough pieces in total.
04 -
Spoon an ample portion of the chicken mixture onto one half of each dough piece, leaving a 1.25 cm border. Fold dough over filling to create a half-moon. Press and crimp edges firmly with a fork to seal.
05 -
Lightly brush each calzone with olive oil to encourage a golden, crisp crust.
06 -
Arrange calzones in the air fryer basket without overlapping. Cook in batches if necessary. Air fry for 8–10 minutes until the crust is golden and crisp.
07 -
Allow calzones to cool slightly before serving. Present alongside extra Alfredo sauce for dipping.
