Recipe Ingredients Below

Hey Divas okay so this is my first cooking video I have had many request to do a cooking tutorial so I finally got around to making one so this is my favorite spanish dish well one of my favorite Spanish Dishes. Very easy to make and great for parties, large gatherings etc

1. Pack of Goya or other brand of Plantillas/ Para Empanadas disc (12 per pack)
2. Boneless chicken breast or ground beef ( or whatever filling you want to put inside)
3. Clean your meat (chicken)
4. If making chicken or steak make sure to cut into small portions.
4
5. Season w/ Sazon liquido/ Sazon, Adobo, season salt, garlic powder (or whatever seasonings you prefer most)
6. let meat you choose marinate for like 30 minutes in seasoning
7. For chicken use only a small amount of oil in frying pan to cook chicken (do not fry chicken do not coat chicken w/ flour) cook chicken to a nice meduim whitish color when middle is cooked chicken should cook for about 8-10 minutes on low -medium heat
8. While chicken is cooking prepare your Disc by using a rolling pin to flaten them out
9. Once chicken/ or meat of your choise is done let cool & then prepare your Disc with them
10. Lay Cheese of your choice onto disc & then layer your meat of choice on top of cheese (do not put to o much meat or your Disc will not close properly)
11. Fold disc in half over fillings. W/ a fork press sides of Disc together leaving forks marks into Disc dough ( it is helpful to have a cup of warm water to dip fork into while pressing sides closed
12. Flour both sides of disc (spread flour in a plate always makes a great & easy way to coat Plantillas Disc
13. Fill frying pan with cooking oil (vegatable oil is best) on medium heat
14. Place Plantillas into hot oil (make sure to watch each Plantillas disc will take 2-3 minutes to golden on the first side. Flip that side over onto other side which only needs to be cooked about 1 minute or until golden (make sure to keep an eye on Frying pan)
15, Remove from pan let cool and enjoy your dish
16. Serve it up with some rice of your choice it makes a great filling meal

  • Try using ground chicken in the future April it works very well. I make similar dish using ground turkey.

    When doing the ground chicken, add some bread crumbs and one egg.when u season the meat and let it rest over night before making the Empandas.
