ingredients

1 package (.5 ounce size) dried porcini mushrooms
1 cup hot water
9 tablespoons butter, divided
1 pound assorted fresh mushrooms, sliced (such as crimini, stemmed shiitake, and button mushrooms)
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups low-salt chicken broth
3/4 cup Riesling wine (or other fruity white wine)
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, cut thin strips
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons cornstarch, MIXED WITH
1/2 cup water
12 sheets fresh phyllo pastry or frozen, thawed
2 pounds skinless. boneless chicken thighs, excess fat removed and thighs quartered
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese

directions

Combine dried porcini and 1 cup hot water in small bowl. Let stand until porcini are soft, about 20 minutes. Drain porcini, reserving liquid.

Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add fresh mushrooms and garlic. Saute until mushrooms are browned, about 8 minutes.

Add porcini, porcini soaking liquid (leaving any sediment behind), broth, wine, prosciutto, lemon peel, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes to blend flavors.

Whisk cornstarch mixture to combine and add to skillet. Stir until mixture thickens slightly, about 1 1/2 minutes. Season sauce to taste with more salt and pepper, if desired.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan and remove from heat. Place 1 phyllo sheet on work surface (cover remainder with sheet of plastic wrap, then damp towel). Brush phyllo sheet with some of melted butter.

Using both hands, gently scrunch buttered phyllo sheet in to loose ball, about 2 1/2 to 3 inches in diameter. Set on a work surface. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets and melted butter.

Bring mushroom sauce to boil. Mix in chicken and parsley. Transfer mixture to a 13- by 9- by 2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Cover hot filling with phyllo balls. Sprinkle Parmesan over.

Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake until phyllo is golden and chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes longer.
