# Steps:
01 -
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or dust with cornmeal.

On a lightly floured surface, unroll the refrigerated pizza dough.
03 -
In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken with melted butter and barbecue sauce until evenly coated.

Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border along one long side. Evenly top with cheddar, mozzarella, and pepper jack cheeses. Scatter sautéed onions if using.

Fold the filled edge over about 2 inches, then fold in the sides and roll tightly into a log. Pinch the seams and ends to seal. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
06 -
Brush the top with beaten egg, then sprinkle grated Parmesan and Italian seasoning over the surface.
07 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil if used and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
08 -
Allow the Stromboli to rest for 5 minutes after baking. Slice and serve warm with extra barbecue sauce or ranch dressing if desired.
# Notes:

Seal the edges tightly to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
