Stuffing a calzone is pretty simple but there are some Good tips, you  never put any thing wet on the bottom Or the top of  the calzone, it will make the dough wet And impossible to work with, layer your provolone, On the bottom towards the center of the calzone all The way across.

 

Then take you’re cooled off,  chicken and Layer that on top of the provolone cheese, next you Need to add  your broccoli  Across the top of the chicken, try to keep as even  as possible,  add your chopped garlic to the top of the broccoli, with salt and pepper.
