Buffalo Chicken Calzone

I made two giant calzones and it was really too spicy for me (I think it was our brand of wing sauce) and now I have a whole one sitting in my fridge that has been left uneaten.

1 pound chicken breasts
1 8 ounce package of cream cheese
handfuls of mexican cheese blend
half of a small onion, diced
minced garlic
1 cup wing sauce
1 roll of Pillsbury thin crust pizza dough (Its the long tube of dough in the refrigerated section)This is the same dough I use for pepperoni rolls
2 tablespoons melted butter
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees
In a wok cook the chicken, breaking up the breasts into bite sized pieces, add the garlic and onion to the wok.
Remove the chicken mixture and put it in a large sauce pan on the stove top. Add the wing sauce and cream cheese and mix everything together until cream cheese is melted.
Spray a baking sheet well with olive oil spray
Lay out the pizza dough
Cut the pizza dough into two equal pieces
Use a brush and brush the pizza dough with butter
Add a layer of cheese to the dough
Spoon on the chicken mixture. We had a little too much mixture so we put the extra in a small tupperware container.
Then I pulled the edges of the dough over and pinched them tightly together
I cut a slit in the top of each calzone
Next I brushed each calzone with a bit of olive oil
Then bake!

Bake until the pizza dough is browned, about 20 minutes

Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken. Pour salsa and soup over chicken. Add black beans and corn I stir it all together Cook on high for about 3.5 hours and cut chicken to check for doneness. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. The first night we ate this mix with these corn tamales we buy, that have no filling. They are just cornbread. We threw some shredded Mexican cheese on top of the salsa chicken mix The second night DH ate the mix, with cheese again, on tortillas I put tortilla chips in a bowl and poured the mixture on top, added cheese. It was like a Mexican chicken chili :) I will be making th...
