Double Swiss Rolls
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup sliced shallot
- 2 tablespoons chopped garlic
- 5 bunches Swiss chard, washed, stems removed and cut into ribbons
- 1 package phyllo dough
- 1/2 stick butter, melted
- 8 to 12 slices Swiss cheese
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place a stockpot over medium heat.
- Coat the bottom of the pan with olive oil and saute the shallot and garlic until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the Swiss chard and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the chard is wilted and tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Place the cooked chard in a strainer and cool in the refrigerator until chilled.
- Squeeze any excess moisture from the chard before continuing.
- Lay out 1 sheet of phyllo dough lengthwise left to right and brush lightly with butter and season with salt and pepper.
- Place another sheet of phyllo on top and repeat this until there are 4 layers.
- Evenly cover the phyllo with slices of Swiss cheese, leaving 1 inch uncovered at the top and bottom of the sheet.
- Take half of the cooled chard and spread across the bottom of the phyllo sheet from side to side.
- Start at the bottom and carefully roll the phyllo up and around the chard like a sausage.
- Fold the ends of the log inward to seal.
- Brush the top with butter so it won't dry out and make another log with the remaining Swiss chard and phyllo dough.
- The logs can be made 1 day ahead and refrigerated.
- Place the logs on a sheet tray and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Let the rolls rest for 5 minutes and then slice using a serrated knife into 2-inch pieces.
- Serve hot or at room temperature.
