About Colombian empanada de pollo
Empanada de Pollo is a classic Colombian dish known for its blend of bold flavors and satisfying textures. These golden, hand-held turnovers are made with a crispy cornmeal dough filled with a savory mixture of shredded chicken, potatoes, onions, garlic, and traditional spices like cumin and paprika. Native to Colombian cuisine, empanadas are a staple at family gatherings and street food stalls, offering a taste of cultural heritage in every bite. While the chicken provides lean protein, the deep-frying process used to achieve their characteristic crunch adds significant calories and fats, making them an indulgent treat rather than an everyday meal. Pairing with a fresh salsa like ají or serving with a salad can enhance their nutritional profile. Moderation is key to enjoying the comforting and flavorful essence of this beloved Colombian delight.
