Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup raisins
3 cups shredded deli rotisserie chicken (from 2-lb chicken)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
16 sheets frozen phyllo (filo) pastry (14x9 inch), thawed
Cooking spray
1/2 cup slivered almonds, finely ground

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray 9-inch glass pie plate with cooking spray.
  • In 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion in butter 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned. Stir in cinnamon and turmeric. Stir in flour; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Slowly stir in broth. Add raisins. Heat to boiling; boil gently 1 minute, stirring occasionally. In large bowl, stir together onion mixture, chicken, cilantro, salt and pepper.
  • Place phyllo sheets on work surface; cover with clean damp towel. Place 1 phyllo sheet in bottom and up side of pie plate, allowing excess phyllo to extend over edge. Lightly spray with cooking spray; sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the ground almonds. Repeat layers, using 7 more phyllo sheets and alternating position of sheets to cover bottom and side of pie plate.
  • Spoon chicken mixture into pastry-lined plate. Using kitchen scissors, cut excess phyllo from edges. Layer with remaining 8 phyllo sheets, spraying each with cooking spray and sprinkling with almonds. Fold excess phyllo under to form rustic crust edge.
  • Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

The crust was a bit dry, but the filling was delicious. I think I'll try using a different crust recipe next time.

This pie was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
