Empadas de galinha, or chicken pastries, are a classic Portuguese dish that blends tender chicken, flavorful bacon, and aromatic spices all wrapped in flaky puff pastry. These savory pastries are perfect for a meal, snack, or even a party appetizer.
- Make sure to cook the chicken thoroughly and let it cool before shredding for the best texture and even mixing.
- Using a high-quality puff pastry can make a big difference in the flakiness and overall taste of the empadas.
- You can customize the filling by adding vegetables like peas or carrots for added texture and nutrients.
- Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the beaten egg to ensure that they seal properly and turn a beautiful golden color.
Enjoy your homemade Empadas de galinha fresh out of the oven, letting them cool slightly before serving. These delicious chicken pastries are sure to impress family and friends with their rich flavors and tender, flaky pastry. They're perfect for any occasion and are likely to become a favorite in your recipe repertoire.
