How to Make Baked Phyllo Chicken Packets

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the filling ingredients: 1 cup cooked chicken, diced; 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese; 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes; 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley; 1 tablespoon lemon juice; salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Set the chicken filling aside.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic butter ingredients: 1/4 cup melted butter; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano.
  6. Set the garlic butter aside.
  7. Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean work surface. Brush with 2 teaspoons of garlic butter.
  8. Top with another sheet of phyllo dough. Place a chicken breast (about 6 oz) on the lower third of the phyllo.
  9. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Spread 3 tablespoons of the chicken filling over the breast.
  10. Fold the phyllo ends and sides inward, then tightly roll up the packet.
  11. Immediately cover the packet with plastic wrap to prevent drying.
  12. Repeat steps 7-11 with the remaining chicken breasts and phyllo sheets.
  13. Place the phyllo packets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining garlic butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  14. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
  15. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
