Spinach and Chicken Spanakopita
  • 2 /3 cups balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 garlic cloves,s halved lengthwise
  • 2 tsps Olive oil
  • 1/3 cups fat-free chicken broth
  • 2 tbsps chopped rosemary
  • 1/2 tsps Salt
  • 4 portobello mushroom caps (1 1/2 lbs.), stems removed
  • 4 roasteds red pepper halves
  • 4 kaiser rolls,s split and toasted
  • 6 ounces smoked or fresh mozzarella, sliced

 

1.  In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter with 2 tablespoons of the oil.

2.  Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with some of the butter-oil mixture.

3.  In a large nonstick frying pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the spinach and dill and cook, stirring almost constantly, until all the moisture evaporates, about 2 minutes.

4.  Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let cool slightly. Stir in the chicken and feat cheese, and then the eggs, 1.4 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.

5.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

6.  Stack the filo sheets on a work surface and cover with a barely damp kitchen towel. Lightly brush 1 sheet with the butter-oil mixture and fit it into the prepared baking dish, letting the excess dough extend over the dish edges. Repeat with 5 more filo sheets. Spread the chicken filling on top. Again brushing each sheet, top with 5 more filo sheets. Top with the final filo sheet, unbrushed, tucking the top filo layers into the dish and under the  bottom layers. Brush with the remaining butter-oil mixture.

7.  Bake until golden brown, 50-60 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Cut into squares and serve hot.
