Another wonderful summer meal. A little oven time, but a really light and delicious meal.
I found this recipe in the Cooking Light Magazine, which is quickly becoming one of my favorites, and there was a wine note next to the recipe that said that this pizza goes very well with Veramonte Sauvignon Blanc Reserva from the Casablanca Valley of Chile. We didn't try it, but I can only imagine how well a white wine would go with this pizza. Yum!
Phyllo Pizza with Feta, Basil, and Tomatoes
Courtesy of Cooking Light
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella
1/2 cup (2 ounces) finely crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
10 (18 x 14–inch) sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed
Cooking spray
2 cups thinly sliced plum tomato
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl.
Cut phyllo sheets in half crosswise. Working with 1 phyllo sheet half at a time (cover remaining dough to keep from drying), place phyllo sheet on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Coat phyllo sheet with cooking spray. Repeat with 2 more layers of phyllo. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese mixture. Repeat layers 5 times, ending with 2 phyllo sheets. Coat top phyllo sheet with cooking spray; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese mixture. Pat tomato slices with a paper towel. Arrange tomato slices on top of cheese, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with onions and the remaining 6 tablespoons cheese mixture. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden. Sprinkle with basil leaves.
