Spinach and Chicken Triangles

Ingredients:

• 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 (10 oz.) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 1 cup finely chopped cooked chicken breast
• 1/3 cup finely crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
• 1 large egg white
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 14 (14 x 18-inch) sheets of phyllo dough, thawed 

Makes 14 Servings (4 triangles per serving)

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 7 minutes.
2. Combine the onion, garlic, spinach, chicken, cheese, dill, egg white, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until well mixed.
3. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Spray 2 jelly-roll pans or baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
4. Place 1 phyllo sheet on a work surface. Cover the remaining sheets of phyllo with plastic wrap to keep them from drying out as you work. Lightly spray the phyllo sheet with nonstick spray. Cut lengthwise into 4 strips. Place a rounded teaspoon of the spinach mixture in one corner of each phyllo strip and fold the phyllo diagonally over the filling to form a triangle. Continue to fold the phyllo (as if folding a flag) to the end of the strip. Place the phyllo triangles, seam side down, on a jelly-roll pan. Cover with a damp paper towel to prevent the phyllo from drying out. Repeat with the remaining phyllo and filling to make a total of  56 triangles. 
5. Bake the triangles until the phyllo is puffed and golden, about 15 minutes. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW Ultimate Chicken Cookbook. I was cleaning out the fridge and pantry and this recipe looked too god to pass up. I was craving Spanakopita but I didn't have all the ingredients for the spanakopita but I had the ingredients for this version. These triangles were absolutely delicious and flavorful. The chicken, spinach and feta cheese go so well together in this Mediterranean snack. The serving of triangles give you a satisfying filling leaving you happy. When you do cook the chicken, don't forget to season the chicken with salt, pepper and minced garlic for a flavorful snack. These triangle make a delicious treat for lunch or a great appetizer at  party.
