Cranberry Chicken Phyllo Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Mix the cranberries, sugar and orange zest and juice in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and cook until the cranberries soften and start to burst, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Combine the cream cheese and Gruyere in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until smooth.
• Place the phyllo cups on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cranberry sauce into each cup. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cheese mixture on top of the cranberry sauce. Bake until the cups are crisp and the cheese is melted and bubbling, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle with chives before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the butter and onion in a 9x13 inch baking dish, and bake in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 15 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven, push the onion over to one end, and place the chicken thighs in the dish in a single layer. Return to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes.
• Stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard powder, and cranberry sauce in a bowl. Remove the chicken from the oven, and scoop the cooked onions into the cranberry mixture. Spoon the mixture over the chicken thighs, and return to the oven.
• Bake until the cranberry mixture is slightly caramelized and the chicken is done, about 20 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Thaw phyllo shells as directed on package.
• In medium bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of the cranberries and the remaining ingredients.
• Spoon generous teaspoonfuls mixture into shells. Garnish with remaining 2 tablespoons cranberries and, if desired, rosemary sprigs.
