Now doesn't that sound good! I still haven't tried Phyllo yet. This sound simple enough so that the phyllo would be the only challenge. Marye, if you get to it first, give us a review. Is there a dipping sauce? A marinara or something?

Marye, if you haven't tried this yet, I would suggest cutting thru at least the top layer of the phyllo (before baking) otherwise most times it just shatters when you try to cut pcs. after it's been baked.
Glad I got home to see this - it sounds really tasty.

Haven't tried it yet either, did think a dipping sauce would be good.
and thanks Jean for the reminder of cutting the phyllo dough before baking
I know that helps.

Copied for later...does look good. Dipping sauce? Good idea. Got any ideas for that yet? After the storm clears I'll play since I am home for a bit.

Marye, just had an idea for dippiing sauce - remember a dinner review menu we did last April (just looked at your sign on date - how funny, it was a few days after this particular menu!!
) - anyway, it was Coke-Brined grilled chicken and the two sauces with it were so good - especially the Sweet Carolina sauce. Maybe one of these might work. The dish is from issue #63, pg. 7 (really good)Coke-brined Grilled Chicken
Bourbon BBQ
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup each: ketchup, apple cider vinegar & bourbon
1 T. worcestershire sauce
Simmer the ingred. together for 5 minutes.
Off heat, season with: salt and red pepper flakes to taste.
Sweet Carolina
1/4 cup each: honey, apple cider vinegar & prepared yellow mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
Simmer the ingredients together for 5 minutes.
Off heat, season with: red pepper flakes to tasste.
These are really tasty sauces.
