CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM FILOS

These Chicken and Mushroom Filos are packed with rich, full flavour encased in flaky golden pastry. Perfect for making ahead & freezing for healthy dinners.


Ingredients

  • 400 Grams/ 14 Oz.Chicken breast chopped into bite sized pieces
  • 1 medium Onion Diced
  • 1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
  • ½ cup Chicken Stock/broth
  • 1 Packet/3.5 Oz. Dried Powdered Cream of Mushroom Soup (I use continental brand)
  • ¾ cup Boiling Water
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary diced finely
  • ½ cup Button mushrooms diced
  • 8 sheets Filo Pastry
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon Butter for pastry

Instructions

  • Make sure to remove the filo pastry from the freezer at least 2 hours before you need it. Keep it unopened at room temperature on the bench.
  • Heat a pan on medium to high heat on the stovetop
  • Add onion and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until onion is translucent
  • Add the diced chicken and cooked until lightly browned
  • Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes, stirring regularly
  • Add the chicken stock/broth, and let it reduce for 2 minutes
  • Add the powdered soup mix to the boiling water and add gradually (in 3 lots) to the chicken/mushroom mixture. The soup should thicken the stock/broth to a gravy consistency
  • Once it has thickened to a gravy like consistency, remove from the heat and let it cool to room temperature before putting onto the flio pastry.
  • Portion out the chicken: Once Chicken and Mushroom is cooled down, divide it into four equal portions, ready for putting into the filo.
  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees C/350 F.
  • Prepare the filo: flatten out 2 sheets of filo. Place chicken in a line lengthways, 1.5 inches from left, leaving an inch at top and bottom (for folding)
  •  Once chicken is placed on the filo, start from the left and fold over once.
  • Next, fold the bottom to the middle, once, followed by the top. (Kind of like wrapping a Christmas present!)
  • Finally, roll the filo, making sure the side stay tucked in. Lay the filos onto a grease proof tray with the seam side down so it stays together
  • Brush over with melted butter so they brown and crisp up, sprinkle a few sesame seeds, and bake in the oven at 180 degrees C/350 F. for 30 minutes.
