Heat a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion, ginger, and garlic; cook 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in salt, turmeric, and pepper; cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add 1 1/2 cups water, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add chicken and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 25 minutes, turning chicken occasionally. Remove chicken from pan.

Increase heat to medium-high; cook 15 minutes or until mixture is reduced to 3/4 cup. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add egg to pan, stirring with a whisk. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly (mixture will be curdled). Remove from heat. Stir in parsley. Finely chop chicken; stir into egg mixture.

Combine almonds and 1 tablespoon sugar.

Preheat oven to 400 °.

Place 1 phyllo sheet on a work surface (cover remaining phyllo to keep from drying); coat phyllo with cooking spray. Arrange another phyllo sheet over coated phyllo sheet; coat with cooking spray. Repeat once more for a total of 3 phyllo sheets. Cut phyllo stack lengthwise into 3 (3-inch-wide) strips. Spoon about 1 tablespoon chicken mixture onto 1 end of each strip; sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon almond mixture. Fold 1 corner of phyllo dough over mixture to form a triangle; keep folding back and forth into a triangle to end of strip. Place triangle, seam side down, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; cover to prevent drying. Repeat procedure with remaining phyllo, cooking spray, chicken mixture, and almond mixture. Lightly coat triangles with cooking spray. Bake at 400 ° for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Combine remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon; dust over pastries. Serve warm.
