Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix shredded chicken, cooked rice, allspice, 0.5 tsp salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Step 2
Brush a phyllo sheet with olive oil, place on a baking sheet, and add 2 tbsp chicken-rice filling in the center.
Step 3
Fold phyllo corners over filling to create a rough square. Brush with oil and repeat with remaining sheets.
Step 4
Bake ouzi until phyllo is golden brown and crisp, about 12–14 minutes.
Step 5
Meanwhile, whisk yogurt with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss warm chickpeas with 1 tbsp olive oil and warm spices.
Step 6
Serve hot ouzi alongside yogurt sauce and spiced chickpeas (fatteh).
