Ingredients
20 sheets Athens® Phyllo Dough (9″x14″), thawed
1/3 cup olive oil, divided
1 1/2 cups red & yellow bell peppers, julienne cut
1 1/2 cups onions, julienne cut
12 ounces beef sandwich steaks (such as Steak-umm)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup feta, crumbled
3/4 cup tzatziki sauce
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon water
Directions
Thaw two rolls of phyllo, following instructions on package. Preheat oven to 375°F.
In a large skillet, sauté peppers and onions in one tablespoon olive oil. Remove from skillet and set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in same skillet, add steaks and cook until brown, breaking up the steaks a little as they cook. Drain any excess liquid from vegetables and steaks. Combine steaks with peppers & onions and season with salt and pepper. Once cool, gently mix in feta.
In a medium bowl, whisk together tzatziki, remaining olive oil and egg.
In a small bowl or ramekin, whisk together egg yolk and water. Set aside.
Unroll and cover phyllo with plastic wrap and then a slightly damp towel to prevent drying out. Place one phyllo sheet on work surface. Brush with one tablespoon of tzatziki mixture. Layer with a second phyllo sheet and brush with one tablespoon of tzatziki mixture. Position phyllo with long side near you. Place one spoonful of filling in a line, lengthwise about 2″ away from the long edge, leaving ¾” at either end for tucking. Fold phyllo over filling and gently roll to end like a “snake”. Repeat this process with the remaining filling and phyllo sheets.
Gently coil each “snake” into a spiral and place on a parchment-lined baking tray, tucking ends under. Brush with egg yolk mixture. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
Reroll unused phyllo sheets and follow storing instructions on package.
