These were pretty tasty. I didn't actually measure out the cheese for each one though and I don't think I put enough in...so next time I would put a lot more on...but I'm a huge cheese fan. The chicken had nice flavor, and the phyllo sheets got so nice and crispy. Great recipe. Thanks for posting!Reply
