Grilled Fruit Phyllo Tart

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter, melted
• 4 teaspoons canola oil
• 8 sheets phyllo dough (14x9-inch size)
• 1 large lemon
• 3 medium peaches, peeled and halved
• 2 cups large fresh strawberries, stems removed
• 4 slices fresh pineapple (1/2 inch thick)
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
• 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

Description

1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a small bowl, mix butter and oil. Brush a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with some of the butter mixture. Place 1 sheet of phyllo dough into prepared pan; brush with butter mixture. Layer with 7 additional phyllo sheets, brushing each layer. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Bake 5-7 minutes or until golden brown (phyllo will puff up during baking). Cool completely.
2. Finely grate 1 Tbsp. lemon zest. Cut lemon crosswise in half; squeeze juice into a bowl. In a large bowl, toss peaches, strawberries, pineapple, brown sugar, salt, and lemon zest and juice. Remove strawberries; thread fruit onto 3 metal or soaked wooden skewers.
3. Place fruit on oiled grill rack. Grill, covered, over medium heat until fruit is tender, turning once, 8-10 minutes for pineapple slices and peaches, 4-5 minutes for strawberries. Remove and set aside.
4. In a small bowl, beat cream until soft peaks form. In another bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped cream. Spread over phyllo crust. Slice grilled fruit; arrange over filling. Sprinkle with mint; cut into pieces.
