Prepare Veggie Mixture: In the same skillet, sautΓ© onions, garlic, and zucchinis for 4 minutes. Add the roma tomatoes, frozen spinach, and mushrooms. Cook until vegetables are medium doneness. Drain the mixture in a colander and let it cool. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese.
-
Assemble Bundles: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface and lightly oil your hands. Place another sheet of phyllo dough on top. Spoon 4 tablespoons of the veggie mixture onto the double sheets, about three inches from the edge and centered. Place a cooked chicken piece on top, followed by another 3 tablespoons of the veggie mixture.
-
Fold and Roll: Starting with the edge of the dough closest to you, fold it over the chicken and veggie filling, then roll one more time. Fold the ends over to create a bundle shape, then continue rolling away from yourself until you have a square packet. Place seam side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with remaining chicken and veggie mixture.
-
Bake: Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
-
Final Touch: Remove the bundles from the oven and brush them with oil. Sprinkle each bundle with 1 teaspoon of grated parmesan cheese. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
Serve: Once done, remove the bundles from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. These Oregano Chicken Bundles are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, served with your favorite sides. Enjoy! π½οΈ
