  1. Preheat the oven to 375 Fahrenheit (190 C)
  2. Dust work surface with a bit of flour and place the dough on.
  3. Roll into large, thin dough sheet-just like you would pizza dough, but thinner (dough will rise while baking)
  4. Put Provolone cheese slices, chicken, mushrooms and onions, and roll.
  5. Once its rolled, saute olive oil, garlic, and rosemary for few second just to release the aroma and oil get flavored.

Recipe Notes

You can use pre-made pizza dough and save yourself a time. You can fill the Stromboli with any filling that you desire, even Nutella. You do not have to make one big stromboli, you make made few smaller ones especially if you have more people. This amount of dough can make up to 3 smaller strombolis.
