Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Add 10 oz chopped fresh spinach and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring until wilted and excess liquid evaporates. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl and cool slightly.
  3. Step 3: Stir into the spinach 8 oz crumbled feta cheese, 3 thinly sliced green onions, 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1 tsp lemon zest, 3/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until combined.
  4. Step 4: Lay one phyllo sheet (about 9x14 inches) on a clean surface and brush evenly with 1/2 tbsp olive oil. Place a second sheet on top and brush again with 1/2 tbsp olive oil.
  5. Step 5: Cut the layered phyllo into 3-inch wide strips. Place about 2 tbsp of the spinach-feta filling at one end of each strip.
  6. Step 6: Fold the corner of the strip over the filling to form a triangle, then continue folding the strip over itself in triangles until fully wrapped.
  7. Step 7: Place the filled triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with remaining olive oil.
  8. Step 8: Bake for 20-25 minutes until the phyllo is crisp and golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
