These Oven-Fried Feta Rolls with Chili Honey are a perfectly crispy and flavorful snack. Phyllo dough is wrapped around creamy feta cheese, baked to golden perfection, and drizzled with a spicy-sweet chili honey glaze for a delightful combination of textures and tastes.
Ingredients
Feta Rolls
- 8 oz feta cheese, cut into strips
- 8 sheets phyllo dough
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Chili Honey Drizzle
- 1 tablespoon chili flakes
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and aid with cleanup.
- Prepare Phyllo Rolls: Take one sheet of phyllo dough and brush it evenly with melted butter. Place a strip of feta cheese along one edge of the dough, then carefully roll it up tightly around the feta. Repeat this process with the remaining phyllo sheets and feta pieces until you have several neat rolls ready.
- Bake the Rolls: Arrange all the prepared feta rolls on the lined baking sheet in a single layer. Brush the tops lightly with olive oil to help them brown evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.
- Make the Chili Honey Drizzle: While the rolls are baking, mix the chili flakes and honey together in a small bowl to create a spicy and sweet drizzle that perfectly complements the salty feta.
- Serve: Once the rolls are out of the oven and still warm, drizzle the chili honey mixture generously over the top. Serve immediately and enjoy this delicious, crunchy, and flavorful snack.
Notes
- Use phyllo dough carefully as it dries out quickly – cover sheets with a damp towel while working.
- Adjust the amount of chili flakes in the honey drizzle to suit your spice preference.
- Serve these rolls as an appetizer or a savory snack alongside drinks.
- Can be baked a few hours ahead and reheated in the oven to retain crispiness.
