Description
Chicken sausages get a flaky phyllo wrap with this easy and kid-friendly recipe.
Ingredients
- 16 sheets Athens Phyllo Dough (9″ x 14″), thawed
- Cooking spray
- 2 chicken sausages, each cut into 4 lengthwise pieces
- optional condiments for serving
Directions
Thaw one roll of phyllo, following thawing instructions on package. Preheat oven to 375⁰F. Unroll and cover the sheets with a damp towel or plastic wrap to prevent drying out. Place one sheet of phyllo on cutting surface and lightly coat with cooking spray. Layer and repeat with three more sheets of phyllo. Cut the layered phyllo in half widthwise.
Place 1 piece of chicken sausage 2 inches from the long end of the strip. Loosely fold short edges over the sausage. Then fold long edge over and roll to the end of the strip. Place on a baking tray seam side down. Repeat to make 8 phyllo fingers. Reroll unused sheets and follow storing instructions on package. Lightly spray the outside of 8 phyllo fingers. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the phyllo is golden brown. Remove from oven. Serve warm.

Tips
Chicken Sausage comes in many great flavors. We chose Chicken Apple Sausage and paired it with a prepared mild Harissa sauce.
Take it up a notch by sprinkling phyllo layers and top with a little parmesan. Or, try inserting a piece of cheddar or provolone cheese with the sausage before wrapping.
This is a great recipe for kids to help.
