Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced green chiles, mozzarella, cheddar, cilantro, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, approximately 10x14 inches.
Spread the chicken and cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Carefully roll the dough lengthwise into a tight log, similar to a jelly roll, pinching the seam to seal it. Tuck and seal the ends to prevent filling from spilling out.
Transfer the stromboli seam-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the surface of the stromboli with the beaten egg to give it a shiny, golden crust. If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds over the top.
Using a sharp knife, make small slits across the top of the stromboli (about 1 inch apart) to allow steam to escape during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and fully cooked through.
Allow the stromboli to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce, such as ranch or salsa.
