Spicy Chicken Phyllo Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray two baking sheets with nonstick spray. 2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, onion, chilies, taco seasoning and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat, until the chicken is browned and any liquid has completely evaporated, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in cheese, sour cream, cilantro and scallions, mixing with a fork until well blended. 3. Place one sheet of phyllo with the short side facing you on a work surface. (Cover remaining phyllo with plastic wrap to keep from drying out.) Lightly spray the phyllo sheet with nonstick spray, then fold it in half lengthwise. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center of the bottom end of the phyllo. Roll up jelly-roll fashion. Place the roll, seam-side down, on the baking sheet. Lightly spray the roll with nonstick spray. 4. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, filling and cooking spray to make a total of 16 rolls. 5. Bake until the filling is hot and the rolls are lightly golden, 20-25 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then cut each roll in half. Serve with the salsa.
