8 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
1/2 C butter

  1. Set the 8 sheets of phyllo on a work surface. Using a sharp knife, with a twelve inch pizza pan as a template, cut through the stack of phyllo sheets. Discard the scraps. With a little melted butter brush the pizza pan.
  2. Layer 4 round phyllo sheets on the pan, brushing each sheet lightly with melted butter.
  3. Spread the seafood mixture evenly over the top of the fourth sheet. Leave a border of about 1 1/2 inches. Fold over the edges to partially cover the filling
  4. Layer and butter the remaining sheets over the seafood mixture. Tuck them under the b'stila as you would a bed sheet.
  5. Bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes.
  6. Cut into wedges and serve immediately with the warm sauce on the side.
