About Duck empanada

Duck Empanada is a savory pastry rooted in Latin American cuisine, offering a gourmet twist with tender, flavorful duck. Wrapped in a golden, flaky dough, the filling typically includes slow-cooked duck, onions, garlic, cumin, and paprika, often complemented by sweet accents like raisins or dried fruit for depth. Duck is rich in protein and offers essential nutrients such as iron and zinc, supporting muscle growth and immune health. However, it is also higher in fat compared to other proteins, contributing to its robust flavor. The empanada dough, while delicious, is a source of refined carbohydrates and may contain saturated fats depending on the preparation. Enjoyed in moderation, Duck Empanadas deliver a balance of indulgent flavor with nutritional value—perfect as an occasional treat or appetizer in a nutritious, diverse diet.
