Curried Chicken Appetizers

Wrap chicken breasts in buttered aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees F for 45 minutes. Remove from oven, unwrap and cool. Cut into small cubes and set aside.

Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Add onion and cook for 1 minute. Add flour and curry powder and cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring constantly until mixture is thick and smooth.

Season with salt. Stir in chicken and walnuts. Remove from heat and let cool completely.

To assemble, place one sheet of phyllo on a flat work surface. Cover remaining dough with a damp towel. Brush with melted butter and top with two more sheets of phyllo, buttering each.

Cut sheet in half lengthwise, then cut each half crosswise into six equal parts. Spoon a heaping teaspoon of chicken filling onto the end of each of the strips and form a triangle by folding the right-hand corner to opposite side, as you would a flag. Continue folding until strip is used.

Repeat until all filling is used. Place triangles on a greased baking sheet and brush lightly with melted butter. Bake at 400 degrees F until golden brown and puffed, about 10 minutes.
