Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Add 6 cups fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. Step 3: In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed spinach, 1 cup crumbled feta cheese, 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Mix well.
  4. Step 4: Lay 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface and brush lightly with melted 4 tbsp unsalted butter. Place another sheet on top and brush again. Cut the layered sheets into 3-inch wide strips.
  5. Step 5: Place about 1 tbsp of the spinach and feta filling at one end of each strip. Fold the corner over to form a triangle, then continue folding the strip in triangles until sealed.
  6. Step 6: Place the phyllo triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with additional melted butter.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Serve warm or at room temperature.
