## Ingredients

- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 6 g baking powder
- 8 g salt
- 12 g honey
- 25 g unsalted butter
- 275 ml lukewarm water
- 15 g unsalted butter
- 150 g yellow onion
- 575 g chicken thighs
- 4 g salt
- 3 g garlic powder
- 2 g black pepper
- 0.5 g Italian seasoning
- 5 g fresh parsley
- 50 g grated cheese
- 1 pesto
- 1 cheese slices
- 1 cheese spread
- 1 sunflower oil
- 1 grated Parmesan cheese

## Instructions

1. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, honey, butter, and lukewarm water in a mixing bowl. Knead for 10-12 minutes until smooth, cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
2. Heat butter in a frying pan, add chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes. Add chicken, salt, garlic powder, pepper, Italian seasoning, and parsley. Cook for 5-7 minutes, turn off heat, and mix in grated cheese. Let the mixture cool completely.
3. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions (about 95g each), shape into balls. Grease hands with oil and flatten a dough ball on a greased surface (use about 25ml of oil). Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
4. On a greased work surface, stretch the dough to approximately 35x30cm. Spread pesto, add cheese slices, chicken mixture, and cheese spread. Fold the edges and roll into a log, seam at the bottom.
5. Slightly flatten the dough, brush with pesto, and roll in grated Parmesan cheese. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 200°C for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
6. Brush with melted butter after baking for an extra soft and flavorful crust.
