directions

  • Preheat oven to 350. Move rack to lower 1/3 of oven.
  • Melt 4 T butter in a saucepan over medium high heat.
  • Add red onions, stir and soften, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add brown sugar, maple syrup and raisins, stirring to combine and melt the sugar, about 4 minutes.
  • Add Dijon mustard; stir.
  • Reduce heat and let cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • In the meantime, slice chicken breasts horizontally very thin, almost shave-like.
  • Melt remaining butter in the microwave.
  • Have the phyllo dough ready to go, under a damp towel to keep from crumbling.
  • Lay out a sheet of phyllo, brush with melted butter. Repeat with 3 more layers of phyllo.
  • Re-cover remaining phyllo with damp towel.
  • Leaving a 2-inch border at the short end, place 1/2 chicken slices/shavings on top of the butter along the short end of the phyllo, leaving a scant 1 inch free along the sides (long sides).
  • Spoon 1/2 prepared brown sugar-mustard sauce over the top of the chicken.
  • Fold the 2-inch border over the chicken/sauce, folding the sides inward also, so that as you roll the entire package will be sealed.
  • Roll up.
  • Place on ungreased cookie sheet and brush with melted butter.
  • Repeat once more with the remaining 4 sheets of phyllo, 1/2 chicken and sauce.
  • Place in pre-heated oven. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes.
  • Serves 4 ladies or 2 hungry guys. Add a crispy salad on the side.
  • Enjoy!

  1. This was so good. Made for a birthday dinner. Spicy and sweet at the same time and loved it all in the phyllo. Thanks so much for creating this and good luck!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live with my husband of 34 years in Oregon. We have 3 great kids and 4 beautiful grandchildren, 6 year old triplets and a soon to be 2 year old. Our daughter lives in Athens, Greece with her husband and our youngest, a son, just got married last summer. My stepson and his wife are the parents of our grandchildren and live about an hour away. Our family is growing and it's always fun to have them all together! I love to travel. I have just returned from a trip to Vietnam and have visited our daughter in Greece several times. During my travels I always enjoy the local food and have fun trying to re-create it at home. To pay the bills, I've been a hairstylist for 40 years and I still love it. I knit, sew, read and I'm just beginning to become interested in quilting,digital scrapbooking and geneology.
