Yield 36 empanadas

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 11-ounce packages pie dough mix
1 9.75-ounce can white chicken meat, drained, or 1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
1 cup chunky salsa
1 3-ounce can sliced ripe olives
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
All-purpose flour, for dusting

Steps:

  • Prepare the pie dough according to the package directions for a double-crust pie. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium saucepan, combine the chicken, salsa and olives. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese. Cool slightly.
  • On a flour-dusted surface, roll out the dough to inch thick. Using a 3-inch-round cutter, cut out 36 circles, rerolling the scraps as needed. Place about 1 tablespoon chicken mixture in the center of each circle. Moisten the edges with water.
  • Fold the circles in half and pinch to seal. Pierce the tops with a fork.
  • Place the empanadas on a baking sheet and bake 15 minutes, or until golden. Serve hot.

These mini empanadas were a lot of work to make, and they didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I think I'll just stick to buying them from the store.

The filling in these mini empanadas was a little bland. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These mini empanadas were a little too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I'm not a fan of empanadas, but these mini chicken empanadas were surprisingly good. The filling was flavorful and the crust was flaky.

These mini empanadas are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few leftover chicken breasts in my fridge, and these empanadas are the perfect way to use them up.
