Thanksgiving Empanadas
WHAT YOU NEED
- 10 pre-made empanadas discs
- 1/2 cup cranberry sauce
- 1 cup shredded pre-cooked turkey
- 1 cup shredded Cacique® Oaxaca cheese
- Oil for frying
HOW TO MAKE IT
- Roll out the pre-made empanada discs with a rolling pin as they are usually a bit thick, and you want a very thin dough to obtain extra crispy empanadas.
- Fill the empanada discs with 1/2 tablespoon of cranberry sauce. Top the cranberry sauce with a little less than a tablespoon of shredded turkey and a tablespoon of shredded cheese.
- Fold the discs in half and seal them with a fork by pressing down the edges. Fry in hot oil for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until golden brown allowing cheese to melt.
