2 large boneless chicken breasts, cubed
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons Italian spices
1 cup frozen broccoli florets
1 roasted red pepper, chopped
9 -10 sheets packaged phyllo dough
2 -3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon flour
6 fluid ounces beer (half bottle, I used Corona)
1 cup heavy cream
2 -3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 -3 dashes ground nutmeg
2 -3 dashes Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Brown chicken in medium pan with olive oil.
  • While chicken is cooking, sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder,chili powder and italian seasonings. Cook chicken through, then remove from heat and set aside.
  • Cheese Sauce:.
  • Melt butter in medium sauce pan over low/medium heat. Stir in flour to make a thick paste. Keep stirring and add beer slowly. Next, add whipping cream. Add cheese a little bit at at time, stirring constantly. Once cheese is melted, turn heat to low and start on your phyllo dough.
  • Oil bottom and sides of a 9x12 baking pan then lay down 3 sheets of phyllo. Add chicken, give the cheese sauce a stir and pour half over the chicken. Lay 3 more sheets of phyllo over chicken, then add broccoli and roasted red peppers and the rest of the cheese sauce. Cover with remaining sheets of phyllo, scrunching them up a little to make them brown and crispy. Drizzle a little olive oil on top to help brown.
  • Bake at 375 for 35 minutes.
