- 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
- 25 ml sunflower oil
- 1 pesto

## Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, honey, butter, and lukewarm water. Knead for 10-12 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
2. Heat the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped yellow onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the chicken thighs, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and parsley. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
4. Turn off the heat and mix in the grated cheese. Let the mixture cool completely.
5. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions of about 95 g each. Shape them into balls.
6. Grease your hands with oil and flatten a dough ball on a greased surface (use about 25 ml of oil). Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
7. Grease your work surface with oil (15 ml per piece) and place the dough on it.
8. Using your fingertips, stretch the dough outward from the center until a sheet of approximately 35 x 30 cm. Regularly grease your hands to prevent tearing.
9. Spread a thin layer of pesto on one side of the dough.
10. Place a slice of cheese on top.
11. Spread the chicken mixture over it.
12. Add cheese spread if desired.
13. Fold the top and bottom edges toward the center. Then fold the sides over the filling and roll the dough into a log. Ensure the seam is at the bottom.
14. Slightly flatten the dough, brush it with pesto, and roll it in grated Parmesan cheese.
15. Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
16. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C (400 °F) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
