Ingredients

  • 8 ounces peeled and deveined cooked shrimp, minced
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh dill
  • 1/4 cup minced green onion
  • 1/2 cup shredded fontina cheese
  • One 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 (16-ounce) packages frozen phyllo dough, thawed
  • 3 sticks (1 1/2 cups) butter, melted
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, stir together the shrimp, dill, green onions, fontina and cream cheese.

On a clean, flat surface, unroll the phyllo dough. Stack the dough and cut lengthwise into quarters. Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a clean damp kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out.

Stack 4 strips, brushing with melted butter between strips. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the shrimp mixture onto one end of the prepared strips. Fold one corner of the short edge over the mixture, leaving a 1-inch border. Continue folding side to side to the end of the strip, forming a triangle. Repeat the procedure with remaining the phyllo, butter and shrimp mixture. Brush with the egg.

Place the triangles, seam-side down, on baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Notes

To make ahead: Place the prepared triangles on baking sheets in a single layer and freeze. Remove from the baking sheets and place in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags. Freeze for up to 1 month. To bake from frozen, place on baking sheets and let stand for 30 minutes. Bake as directed.

    These are perfectly wonderful as they are, but even better made with either crab or lobster. Out of this world!! Similar to a Crab Rangoon, but not fried. Butter and crab/lobster - - can it get any better??? Nope!

    Very Good. I added 1 to 2 T of coctail sauce to cream cheese to give it a bit of zip. I also used a bit more shrimp.
