Feta Stuffed Shishitos In Phyllo Recipes

STUFFED SHISHITOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450˚ F. Cut a 1- to 1 1/2-inch slit down the length of each shishito pepper. Stuff the peppers with the cheese. Wrap each stuffed pepper with a small slice of the serrano ham.
• Arrange the peppers on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake until the ham is lightly browned and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes.

FETA-STUFFED SHISHITOS IN PHYLLO

Steps:

• Toss peppers with oil; season with salt. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high; add peppers and cook, stirring, until blistered, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool completely.
• Stir together feta and cream cheese in a small bowl until smooth. Make a small slit along long side of each pepper; stuff peppers with cheese mixture.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lay 1 phyllo sheet on a work surface; brush with oil. (Keep rest of phyllo covered with a damp towel as you work.) Cut lengthwise into 3-to-4-inch-wide strips (slightly smaller than peppers). Place a pepper at bottom of each strip; tightly roll. Transfer, seam-side down, to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush top with oil; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Repeat with remaining peppers and phyllo. (Rolled peppers can be frozen, covered tightly, up to 2 weeks.) Bake until phyllo is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
