About Empanada de pollo
Empanada de Pollo, a savory pastry with roots in Latin American and Spanish cuisine, is a delightful blend of flavor and tradition. This dish features a golden, flaky crust encasing a flavorful filling of shredded chicken, onions, bell peppers, garlic, and a medley of spices. Depending on the recipe, tomatoes, olives, or raisins may be added to enhance the taste and texture. While rich in protein from the chicken, empanadas are often fried, which can add significant calories and fat. Baking provides a lighter alternative for a healthier preparation. The dough, typically made from refined flour, contributes carbohydrates but lacks fiber. Empanada de Pollo offers balanced nutrients and energy when enjoyed in moderation, making it a satisfying option for a meal or snack. Pairing it with a fresh salad or vegetable side dish can enhance its nutritional value while honoring its traditional roots.
