Ingredients
Filling
- 8 ounces feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Dough & Coating
- 1 cup phyllo dough sheets
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Drizzle Sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
Garnish
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Feta Filling: Crumble the feta cheese into a bowl and mix it thoroughly with garlic powder and black pepper to infuse the cheese with flavor and spice.
- Assemble the Rolls: Carefully brush each sheet of phyllo dough with olive oil to ensure crispiness when baked. Place a portion of the seasoned feta mixture onto the phyllo, fold the sides over the filling, and then roll tightly to form neat rolls.
- Coat Rolls with Breadcrumbs: Dip each assembled roll in olive oil to help the breadcrumbs stick, then evenly coat them with panko breadcrumbs for a crunchy texture.
- Preheat Oven and Bake Rolls: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the coated rolls on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are beautifully golden brown and crispy.
- Prepare the Chili Honey Drizzle: In a small bowl, combine honey and sweet chili sauce, stirring well to create a sweet and spicy drizzle.
- Serve: Remove the rolls from the oven, drizzle generously with the chili honey mixture, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving to add a fresh, vibrant finish.
Notes
- Make sure to handle the phyllo dough gently as it is delicate and can tear easily.
- For extra crispiness, opt for panko breadcrumbs over regular breadcrumbs.
- The sweet chili honey drizzle can be adjusted to taste by varying the ratio of honey to chili sauce.
- These rolls are best served warm to enjoy the crispy texture and melty feta inside.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven to maintain their crispiness.
