Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F.

  2. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet; cook chopped onion for 6 to 8 minutes until softened.

  3. Stir in chopped garlic, salt, and pepper for 2 minutes until fragrant, then remove the skillet from heat and cool for 15 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, thoroughly drain thawed spinach, pressing out all excess liquid.

  5. Combine the cooled onion mixture with drained spinach, shredded chicken, crumbled feta, sour cream, heavy cream, parsley, dill, scallions, and lemon zest in the skillet; stir well and press into an even layer.

  6. Brush 4 phyllo sheets with the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil on both sides.

  7. Gently scrunch and arrange the phyllo over the spinach mixture, ensuring the entire surface is covered.

  8. Bake for about 30 minutes until the phyllo is golden and crisp, then let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
