About Tablespooon of empanada made of aji de gallina

A Tablespoon of Empanada Made of Aji de Gallina is a flavorful bite rooted in Peruvian cuisine. Aji de Gallina is a creamy chicken stew made with shredded chicken, aji amarillo peppers, milk, bread crumbs, and cheese, bursting with the unique taste of Peruvian spices. In empanada form, this filling is encased in buttery, flaky pastry, offering a delicious handheld treat. While rich in protein from the chicken and calcium from the dairy ingredients, the empanada also contains fats from the cheese and pastry, making it more indulgent than a health-focused dish. Aji amarillo provides a dose of vitamins A and C and a mild kick without overwhelming heat. Due to the combination of comforting carbs, fats, and protein, it’s best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. It’s an innovative way to experience classic Peruvian flavors.
