Ingredients

1 tablespoon Butter

3/4 cup chopped red bell pepper

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh garlic

1 to 2 teaspoons finely chopped jalapeño chiles

2 cups finely chopped cooked chicken breast

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 cup Sour Cream

6 ounces (1 1/2 cups) Cheddar Cheese, shredded

3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

18 (18x14-inch) sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed

1/2 cup Butter, melted

Salsa, if desired

Directions

To assemble bites, place 1 sheet phyllo dough on flat surface; brush with melted butter. Top with 2 additional sheets, buttering each sheet. Trim stack using kitchen shears to 18x12 1/2 inches. Cut stack in half crosswise; cut each stack lengthwise into 2 1/2-inch strips.

Spoon 2 teaspoons filling onto center of end of each stack of strips. Form triangle by folding lower right-hand corner of each strip to opposite side. Continue folding in triangles to end of strip.

Heat oven to 350°F.

Melt butter in 12-inch skillet until sizzling; add red pepper, onion, garlic and chiles.

Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened and liquid has evaporated (3 to 5 minutes).

Add chicken and cumin; continue cooking until heated through (1 to 2 minutes).

Remove from heat.

Cool 10 minutes.

Stir in sour cream, cheese and cilantro.

-----------------------------------------------------

Place triangles onto ungreased baking sheet.

Repeat 5 more times with remaining phyllo dough and filling.

Brush appetizers with butter before baking.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Serve warm with salsa, if desired.

------------------------------------------------------

TIP: To make ahead, prepare appetizers as directed above except do not bake. Wrap in plastic food wrap; place into a large resealable freezer container. At serving time, heat oven to 350°F. Place desired number of appetizers onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with salsa, if desired.
