Empanada de Pollo Horneada is a savory baked pastry originating from Latin American cuisine, celebrated for its delightful balance of flavors and textures. This empanada features a golden, flaky dough encasing a flavorful chicken filling made with shredded chicken, onions, garlic, bell peppers, and a medley of spices like cumin and paprika. Often enhanced with olives, raisins, or eggs, the filling provides a blend of sweetness and savory richness. Baking, rather than frying, makes this empanada a lighter alternative, reducing overall fat content while preserving taste. Its chicken filling is a good source of protein, while the vegetables add vitamins and fiber. However, the pastry can be calorie-dense due to refined flour and fats. This dish is ideal for enjoying in moderation as part of a balanced diet, while savoring the culinary traditions of Latin America.
