GREEK CHICKEN IN FILO (KOTOPITA)



Greek Chicken in Filo (Kotopita) image

Handling Filo Dough: If possible, buy filo that has not been frozen. It can be found in the refrigerator section of most Greek and some Middle Eastern delis. Let the package come to room temperature before opening it. The sheets are easier to work with at room temperature. Remove the sheets you are working with and spray or brush them with oil, butter or non stick cooking spray as quickly as possible. Keep the unused portions covered with a towel or plastic wrap. Work quickly; do not expose reserved sheets to the air or they will dry out and disintegrate. Sprinkle bread crumbs between the layers to keep them from sticking together when they bake; this is particularly helpful if you plan to refrigerate or freeze the recipe before baking. Some cooks work on a lightly dampened towel, but I find it makes the dough soggy.

  • Wash thoroughly the chicken and place in a deep pan. Pour in enough water to cover the chicken and add the sliced onions and a good pinch of sea salt and bring to the boil. While the chicken boils, some white foam will probably surface on the water. Remove that foam with a slotted spoon. Put the lid on and boil for about 40 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove the chicken from the pan and let it cool down for a while and keep the chicken stove aside. When it cools down, remove the skin and bones from the chicken and cut he meat into thin strips.
  • In the meantime, prepare the bechamel sauce. For the bechamel sauce, use a large pan and melt 5 tbsps butter. Add 7 tbsps of flour to the melted butter, whisking continuously to make a paste. Add the milk, warmed, in a steady steam, whisking continuously. Pour in 1 1/2 cup of the chicken stove and continue whisking, until it slightly thickens. Remove from the heat and add the kefalotyri, the eggs, a pinch of nutmeg, salt and pepper and whisk. Add the chicken, along with the chopped ham and bacon and stir.
  • Melt the rest of the butter. Using a pastry brush, butter the bottom and sides of a baking tray (approx. 35*25 cm) and remove the phyllo roll from the plastic sleeve. You will use 8 sheets of phyllo for the bottom of the pie.
