Little Chicken Pies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
2 None onions, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp finely grated fresh root ginger
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 None rotisserie or roast chicken, skin removed, flesh shredded
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
9 sheets phyllo dough
6 tbsp (3/4 stick) butter, melted
2 tsp sesame seeds

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F. Line a large baking pan with parchment paper.
Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet on medium heat. Cook onions for 10-15 mins, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown. Stir in garlic, sugar, ginger and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, for 1 min. Transfer to a large bowl and allow to cool. Stir in chicken and cilantro.
Brush 3 sheets phyllo generously with butter and stack in a neat pile. Using a 5-inch cutter, cut 6 rounds from the stacked phyllo sheets. Repeat twice with remaining phyllo and butter.
Divide one-third of chicken mixture among 3 phyllo rounds and top with another 3 rounds. Scrunch the edges together to seal. Arrange on prepared pan. Brush with butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling.
Bake for 10-15 mins, until golden brown. Serve warm.
