This really is the quintessential appetizer. Perfect for serving at parties and during the holidays. You can adapt the recipe to your own tastes. Sauteéd mushrooms are delicious, and you can easily substitute sausage or chopped cooked chicken for the shrimp.

Equipment

6 QT Air Fryer

Ingredients

¼ lb shrimp fully cooked, tails removed and roughly chopped
⅓ cup artichoke hearts marinated, drained, roughly chopped
⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained, chopped
2 tbsp ricotta cheese
3 tbsp mozzarella cheese shredded
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp dill fresh, chopped
1 large egg white
½ tsp Kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper freshly ground
12 sheets phyllo dough thawed (if frozen)
3 tbsp unsalted butter melted

Instructions

In a medium bowl, add all the ingredients except for the phyllo dough and butter. Mix until combined.
Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean work surface and brush with melted butter. Cover the remaining sheets with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out.
Place another sheet on top of the butter sheet and gently press. Brush a little more butter on top of the second sheet.
Cut the sheets into thirds, lengthwise.
Place 1 heaping tbsp of the filling at the end of each strip.
Fold the bottom right-hand tip of phyllo over the filling to connect with the other side, forming a triangle. Continue folding in this manner (like folding a flag) until you've reached the end of the phyllo strip. Brush the edges with butter to help them seal.
Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets and filling.
Place 6 triangle in the air fryer basket and cook for 5 to 6 minutes at 370°F, or until the phyllo is golden and crisp. Repeat with remaining triangles. Serve at once!

Notes

We love using our IKICH 6 QT Air Fryer to make this recipe!

Make sure the phyllo dough is completely thawed before starting to prepare the recipe.

See video for exactly how to fold the dough to form the triangle.

Open the basket midway through cooking and gently move the triangles around - this will allow for more even browning and crisping of the dough.

You can keep the prepared triangles in a low temp oven (220°F) for up to an hour before serving.

These are wonderful by themselves, but also good with Homemade Cocktail Sauce or Kickin' Remoulade Sauce.
