CHICKEN EMPANADA WITH CHORIZO AND OLIVES
Yield Servings: 18 empanadas
Number Of Ingredients 19
Steps:
- Make Dough: Sift flour with salt into a large bowl and blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal with some (roughly pea-size) butter lumps. Beat together egg, water, and vinegar in a small bowl with a fork. Add to flour mixture, stirring with fork until just incorporated. (Mixture will look shaggy.) Turn out mixture onto a lightly floured surface and gather together, then knead gently with heel of your hand once or twice, just enough to bring dough together. (Deb note: If you use a large-ish bowl, you can do this step in-bowl.) Form dough into two flat rectangles and chill them, each wrapped in plastic wrap, at least 1 hour. Dough can be chilled up to 6 hours total. Make Filling: Pat chicken dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown chicken, turning over once, about 6 minutes total, and transfer to a plate. Sauté onions, garlic, and bay leaves in fat remaining in skillet, stirring frequently, until onions are softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add chorizo and paprika and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add olives, wine, and broth and bring to a boil, stirring and scraping up any brown bits. Return chicken to skillet along with any juices accumulated on plate, then reduce heat to moderately low and simmer chicken, covered, turning over once, until tender, 25 to 30 minutes total. Transfer chicken to a clean plate. (Sauce in skillet should be the consistency of heavy cream; if it's not, briskly simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.) When chicken is cool enough to handle, discard skin and bones and coarsely chop meat. Stir chicken into sauce and discard bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper, then cool filling, uncovered, about 30 minutes. Form Empanadas: Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Divide first dough and half of second dough into 18 equal pieces and form each into a disk. (The remaining dough can be stored in the freezer for future use.) Keeping remaining pieces covered, roll out 1 piece on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 5-inch round (about 1/8 inch thick). Spoon about 2 tablespoons filling onto center and fold dough in half, enclosing filling. Press edges together to seal, then crimp decoratively with your fingers or tines of a fork. Transfer empanada to a baking sheet. Make 17 more empanadas in same manner, arranging on 2 parchment-lined baking sheets. Lightly brush empanadas with some of egg wash and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until golden, about 25 minutes. Transfer empanadas to a rack to cool at least 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.Not wanting to engage you all in egg-splitting, this empanada dough recipe technically makes enough for 24 pockets. The extra can be stored in the freezer for future use.
CHICKEN AND CHORIZO EMPANADAS
Traditional in South America, Spain and Portugal, empanadas are little pastry pockets with an intensely flavoured savoury filling. They are great eaten any time but make a particularly good tapas-style snack with a cold beer.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
- For the filling, put the chicken thighs in a small roasting dish, season well all over with salt and pepper and roast for about 45 minutes, or until cooked through. Set aside to cool a little.
- Meanwhile, make the pastry. Melt the butter and leave it to cool slightly. Put the flour in a large bowl and mix in the salt. Pour in the butter and egg. Start mixing, adding 3-5 tablespoons of water as you go, until you have a soft dough. Turn this out onto a clean work surface and knead it gently for a couple of minutes, or until smooth. Return the dough to its bowl, cover and set aside to rest while you prepare the filling.
- To finish the filling, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until soft.
- Add the garlic, chorizo, cumin seeds and raisins. Cook over a medium heat for 5-8 minutes, stirring often, until the chorizo is cooked. Remove from the heat.
- Once the chicken thighs are cool enough to handle, remove the skin. Pull all the meat from the bones and chop it roughly. Add to the chorizo mixture. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed (the chorizo is already quite salty), then leave to cool completely.
- Turn the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and line a large baking tray with baking parchment.
- Lightly flour the work surface and roll out the dough to a thickness of 3-4mm. Use a 12cm/4½in cutter or a small bowl to cut out 10 discs. You will probably need to re-roll the offcuts once to get this many. Divide the filling between the discs. Dampen the edges of the dough with water then fold over one half of each disc to make a semicircular parcel. Press the edges together firmly then crimp or press the edges with a fork.
- Put the empanadas on the baking tray and brush with beaten egg. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden-brown. Eat them warm, on their own or with a chilli sauce.
CHICKEN CHORIZO SPANISH EMPANADA
Posted for ZWT. I found this recipe on Bitchincamero's blog. A note from her : You can make the dough and filling up to 3 days in advance. In fact, the flavors are better when the chicken has had a day or two in the fridge. Assemble and bake just before serving.

Steps:
- Make the dough. Whisk the dry ingredients together, then mix in the eggs and shortening until you get crumbs the size of peas (or dipping dots). You can use an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook, or use your hands.
- Place a large piece of plastic wrap on your work surface. Dump the dough crumbles onto the plastic wrap and knead into a cylinder. Tightly cover with another piece of plastic wrap, maintaining the cylindrical shape. Refrigerate for an hour or so.
- While the dough cools, make the filling. Heat a large pot over medium. Once it's hot, add the olive oil, onions, green pepper, garlic and tomatoes. Saute for 10 minutes, or until the onions are soft and translucent. Add the chicken and ham and continue to saute until the chicken is almost cooked through.
- Add the wine and deglaze the bottom of the pot. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add the chorizo, piquillo peppers and green olives. Cover and continue simmering for another 14 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest until it comes to room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 400°.
- Roll the dough out between two pieces of plastic wrap intil it's about 1/4-inch thick. Once your dough is rolled out, transfer it into an ungreased casserole dish (we used a large, 8″ by 11″ and 3″ deep dish). Cover the bottom and sides with dough, pushing it up the sides with your fingers if needed.
- Bake the bottom and sides for 15 minutes, then remove from oven and let come to room temperature. Reduce oven temperature to 350°.
- Add the filling to the casserole dish, then cover the top with the remaining dough (like a pie). Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Slice and serve with a big green salad.

CHICKEN WITH CIDER INFUSED CHORIZO EMPANADAS
Empanadas originate from the Galician region of northern Spain and often feature delicious fillings made with local ingredients of the area. This chicken with cider infused chorizo empanadas recipe draws inspiration from two famous dishes found in the northern corners of Spain: the empanada from Galicia, and Chorizo a la sidra (Chorizo cooked In cider) found in Asturias.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, add the flour and salt, and slowly add the butter, mixing it with your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Next, in a separate small bowl, beat the egg and mix with the cold water and vinegar. Mix in quickly with the flour and butter mixture. Bring the ingredients together with your hands and knead until the ingredients form a smooth dough.
- Shape into a disc, wrap with clear film, and chill for an hour.
- First, in a large frying pan, heat some of the olive oil on medium-high heat. Add the onions and fry until soft and slightly golden. Add the grated tomato and the garlic with a tablespoon of sweet paprika and lower heat to medium. Cook for around 4-5 minutes.
- Next, add the chorizo and cider and simmer for around 6-7 minutes or until the cider has evaporated.
- Remove from the heat and add the diced cooked chicken pieces and mix well.
- Once cooled, move the pan ingredients into a mixing bowl and add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, olives, some chopped parsley, the rest of the olive oil with some seasoning to taste. Mix well and set aside for use later.
- Preheat the oven to 356°F (180°C) in preparation for the next step.
- Use a rolling pin to roll out your pastry. (skip this step if you're using store bought empanada pastry). Ensure the pastry is even and thin, around 1-2mm is ideal. Use a small plate and a sharp knife to divide the pastry into small circular disks around 4 inches in diameter. Once you have made a disk, cover it with a small piece of parchment paper to keep it separated.
- Beat one egg in a small bowl, we'll use this for sticking the empanadas and for glazing. Set aside with a glazing brush at the ready.
- Lay out one empanada disk and lightly glaze the perimeter (½ inch or so is perfect.
- Next, use a teaspoon to scoop some of the filling onto the center of the disk.
- Gently fold the pastry in half and crimp the edges slightly with a fork (or your fingers for a more authentic look).
- Glaze with a little beaten egg and add to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Repeat steps until you have the desired amount of empanadas.
- Bake for 15 minutes and check on the empanadas. If not golden enough, bake for an additional 3-4 minutes at 410°F (210°C). Remove from the oven once done and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving (the filling will be piping hot!).

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil; add the tomatillos, jalapeno, onion, and garlic. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the tomatillos are soft. Drain and cool slightly. Combine the tomatillos, jalapeno, onion, garlic, cilantro, and lime juice in a blender. Add 1/4 cup of water and process to a coarse puree; season with a generous pinch of salt. You should have about 3 cups of this salsa verde.
- Combine the shredded chicken and queso fresco in a large mixing bowl. Pour in 1 1/2cups of the salsa verde and fold the ingredients together to moisten. Use as a filling for empanadas. Serve the remaining salsa verde on the side.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, masa harina, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the melted butter. Gradually add 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of water, working it in with your hands to incorporate; the dough should be easy to handle and not sticky. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
- Lightly flour your rolling pin and counter. Divide the dough in 1/2 so it will be easier to work with and roll it out to 1/8-inch thickness. Using a 4-inch cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out 10 circles of dough; repeat with the other 1/2.
- Spoon 2 generous tablespoons of filling into the center of each pastry circle, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Brush the edges with the egg wash and then fold the dough over in 1/2 to enclose the filling and form a semi-circle. Tightly seal the edges by crimping with the tines of a fork. Chill at least 30 minutes before baking.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the empanadas on a buttered baking sheet and brush the tops with additional egg wash. Using a fork, prick a few holes in the top of the empanadas for steam to escape. Bake for 30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown.
