I love those little phyllo shells, I used them a few weeks ago for a cooking demo with a mushroom filling. Your chicken salad looks amazing!
How delightful! I once searched high and low for phyllo tartlets, but came up empty-handed. I would probably also buy 0ut the store if I found them!
Love the idea of an Asian chicken salad in these little appetizers!
Mmmmm…I love the Asian twist on your chicken salad! And I love that you gave us permission to use premade filo shells…thank you!!!! Wonderful shower dish~
What a fabulous idea! Love these mini tartlets..
I use those mini phyllo shells all the time, they are a great time saver and so adorable! The flavors in the Asian chicken salad sound like a knock out, I’m pinning this for later!
The orange juice is a nice twist! I like that it’s a play on the dried orange peel used to season a lot of Chinese dishes. Okay to add fresh chili instead of flakes, or will that be too spicy for the size of the tartlet?
No, I thought about adding fresh chili sauce/peppers or Srikacha, but didn’t have any. I think you can add as much heat as you like. The honey balances the spice beautifully! 🙂
Love the phyllo shells used as a base. Looks like a delicious appetizer for a shower. I need to make these!
These are perfect for a bridal tea! How fun! And may I say I’m all about using the pre-made shells…especially for something like this. Yum!
