Filled Phyllo with Caramelized Onions and Peppers with Apricot Dipping Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 whole Onion, Sliced Thin
- 1/2 whole Yellow Bell Pepper, Sliced Thin
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1/4 cups Butter, Melted
- 20 pieces Phyllo Dough
- 6 ounces, weight Brie
- 3 Tablespoons Apricot Preserves
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Generously drizzle olive oil into a large saute pan.
- Heat pan to medium and when oil is shimmering, add onions and peppers.
- Wait a minute or two and stir.
- Let onions and peppers saute about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- If you see them start to really brown, turn the heat down a little.
- All appliances are different; I find mine cooks and bakes much faster than most.
- After about 8-10 minutes add the sugar and stir.
- Continue to cook over medium heat for about 20-30 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes.
- Set aside.
- Melt the butter in a small bowl and prepare your work space you will need a clean area to lay out the phyllo, the onion mixture, the brie, and the butter.
- Lay out half of the phyllo; cover the rest with plastic wrap or a damp towel.
- I cut this into rectangular strips with a pizza cutter; you could use kitchen scissors also.
- Place one rectangle on a buttered or sprayed baking sheet.
- In the center of one rectangle, carefully layer the onions, peppers, and dot with the brie.
- With a pastry brush outline the edges of the dough with butter or water.
- Now carefully pick up another rectangle and place it on top of the first.
- Press down on the edges to form a seal, and then lightly brush butter over the entire top, down to the edges.
- Repeat the same steps with the rest of your phyllo.
- Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until light golden brown.
- While they are baking, combine preserves and mustard to make the dipping sauce.
- Enjoy!
