Ingredients
8-10 sheets of (#4) phyllo
4 oz (113g) butter, melted
optional: sesame seeds for garnish
For the Filling:
1 and 1/2 pounds (680g) boneless chicken thighs
2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2-3 tablespoons olive oil
salt, to taste
black pepper to taste
8 oz (226g) cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 oz (113g) feta cheese
1 egg
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 large roasted red pepper, diced
a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Prepare the chicken: Place the chicken in a tray and drizzle the olive oil and vinegar over it. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Air Fryer Instructions: Preheat the air fryer to 400 °F for 5 minutes. Add the chicken to the basket and cook for 10 minutes on one side. Flip and cook 5 additional minutes on the other side. Set aside to cool.
Oven Instructions: Preheat the oven to 400 °F, 200 °C. Bake the chicken for about 25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 °F.
Make the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl combine the cream cheese and scallions and mix together. Add the remaining filling ingredients. Chop the chicken and add to the filling. Mix together until incorporated.
Assemble the pies: Place a sheet of phyllo onto a clean work surface and drizzle butter on top. Layer another sheet of phyllo over it and drizzle with butter.
Place 4 tablespoons of filling in the center and fold the sides over the filling drizzling butter before each fold. Place the pie seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops of the pies with butter and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
Air Fryer Instructions: Set the air fryer to 350 °F and bake the pies for 15 minutes or until golden and crisp.
Oven Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C and bake on the center rack for about 50 minutes or until golden and crisp.
Serve the pies warm with tztaziki on the side. Kali Orexi!
Notes
Freezer Instructions: Assemble the pies and freeze until set. Transfer to freezer-safe bags or wrap the tray tightly with plastic wrap. They will keep fresh in the freezer for up to 3 months. Bake them frozen in a preheated oven (350 °F) until golden. About an hour.

Η κοτοπιτα φαίνεται πολύ νόστιμη θα την κάνω με στήθος κότας , μια ερώτηση αν μπορείς να βάλεις στην κατάψυξη γαλακτομπούρεκο ;
I made them with chicken after yout recipe and with lamb also the same only with a lebanese twist. Delicious!
Instead of bringing your hair to the front why don’t you pull it to the back….that’s gross!
Sounds wonderful! Really want to make this.
Αγαπητή Δήμητρα θα ήθελα αν μπορείς να μου δείξεις και συνταγή κοτόπιτα με φύλλο κουρου.. Αυτή με τη μπεσαμελ. Ευχαριστώ!! Είναι υπέροχα όλα όσα κάνεις!
Okay, the verdict is in, this was delicious! I froze the rest of them, you said that I can cook them from frozen, how do I do that?!
4 minutes and the first one will be done.
I noticed that the phyllo seemed to be dissolving! I used a spatula like you did but it didn't want to slide off and seemed to tear on the bottom.
I put the tray with the others in the freezer.
Making today 🤗😀
Must be delicious!! You made it look so easy 🙂 keep sharing please… I’m subscribed! 🤩
Looking forward to making this. I'll switch out the chicken for vegan chicken.
I just bought that same air fryer, I love it! I might try this, I say might because I have a feeling I won't be able to find the phyllo. 😒
But if I can find it, I am definitely going to try these!
Thank you for your absolutely fabulous recipes. I’ve had an Air fries for some time and of course you’re right about how fast they are. However, the disappointing aspect is their capacity. For a family of 3 or 4, even the largest ones don’t pass master. Your pockets for example, have to be done one at a time (15 minutes each) times 5, compared with cooking all at once in the oven for one hour. It doesn’t quite work. 🤣
What a great idea for a fun picnic food!
So happy to see you on YouTube. The first time I saw you was on Facebook when you did the pita bread. Your pita recipe is the best
J'adore tes recettes. Merci chef
TY sweet Diittroula mou! I refer this kotopita better with the cream cheese filling and chicken better because it's lighter for me I will definitely make these instead
Everything you make is so delicious. Where did you have your cafe ❤️
Καλησπέρα Δήμητρα. Αγαπημένη πίτα αυτή που έφτιαξες σε μικρούς και μεγάλους. Επίσης πολύ ωραία ιδέα οι ατομικές πιτουλες. Έτσι δεν έχουμε πρόβλημα ποιος θα φάει τη γωνία.
I'm definitely going to make this and I'm so excited. I have most of the ingredients already! 😄
I would love to try this recipe! Please let me know what is an alternative to Phyllo if I don't find it please…..
Δήμητρα φαίνονται τέλειες και πεντανόστιμες οι κοτοπιτες σου !! Ευχαριστούμε για τις ωραίες και κατατοπιστικές συνταγές ! Σίγουρα θα τις δοκιμάσουμε !!
Thank you for sharing this recipe! You make everything look so delicious 😋 🥰
Hi Dimitra! I tried your chicken marinade with chicken breasts (the balsamic vinegar one). It tastes exactly like the expensive Greek restaurants here. My city has a large Greek population. Thanks! I'm saving money now I don't have to eat out 😃
Nice, I will have to give it a try, looks delicious.
These pies looks so pretty and delicious !!! Can't wait till I make them !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love your vlogs
Always delicious!
