About Pastelito de pollo
Pastelito de Pollo is a flavorful pastry originating from Latin American cuisine, often enjoyed as a snack or appetizer. This golden, flaky treat is filled with a savory chicken mixture, seasoned with a blend of spices, onions, peppers, and sometimes olives or raisins for a hint of sweetness. The dough, typically made from wheat flour and butter or shortening, is folded around the filling and fried or baked to perfection. While bursting with rich flavors, its nutritional profile varies based on preparation. Baking pastelitos can reduce fat content compared to frying, making it a slightly lighter option. The chicken provides a source of lean protein, while the vegetables add essential vitamins and minerals. However, the pastry shell is high in refined flour and fats, which can add calories and saturated fats. Moderation is key to enjoying this delicious and comforting dish as part of a balanced diet.
