 |
1/2 pound turkey Italian sausage links, casings removed 1 small onion, finely chopped 1/4 cup finely chopped sweet red pepper 1 garlic clove, minced 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese 8 sheets phyllo dough (14 inches x 9 inches) 12 whole chives, optional
Crumble the sausage into a large nonstick skillet; add onion, red pepper and garlic. Cook over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in cheese; cool slightly. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface; coat with cooking spray. Cover with a second sheet of phyllo: coat with cooking spray. (Until ready to use, keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent drying out.) Cut widthwise into three 4-in. strips, discarding trimmings. Top each with 2 rounded tablespoons of sausage mixture; fold bottom and side edges over filling and roll up. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling. Place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 5-6 minutes or until lightly browned. Tie a chive around each bundle if desired. Serve warm.
Yield: 1 dozen.
