    I made this recipe for a party last night and they were a hit! I had read the reviews that they were a little dry so I also made a dipping sauce out of 1 cup sour cream, 4 oz cream cheese softened and 1/2 cup med store bought salsa. (excellent by the way and they were soooo good! I personally did not think they were too dry but the dip was an added bonus and everyone loved it and wanted the recipe! Thanks Paula

    This recipe was the first time I tried making empanadas. Very good! I fixed a meal for my mom and dad. They loved it! I think I will fry them next time. Overall, very tasty dish.

    My kids (15 & 9 love these! They are the perfect blend of good flavor, but not too spicy. They can be a bit time-consuming to put together, so I usually make at least 2 or 3 batches at once and freeze them. Super easy to pop in the oven on a school-night! We usually serve them with mexican or spanish rice.

    I put all ingredients in a saucepan with a touch of olive oil and sauteed the peppers with the chicken and spices. I added a red onion and some mushrooms to the peppers. Then, took it off the heat and added the cheeses. WOW! This was phenomenal. I didn't have any premade pie crusts, so I made my own. Everyone at my house (even the picky 8 year old devoured them! I will make more crusts tomorrow and freeze them for a quick, easy snack.

    Recipe was great. Really enjoyed the filling. The pie crust threw me off a little, i enjoyed this better when i used the extra filling for quesodillas. Next time im going to try it with a pizza crust instead

    I made these and my family loved them. I changed it up a little to suit what my family liked, so I left out the cream cheese and peppers. I read that everyone complained about them being dry, so I boiled my chicken with some chicken taco seasoning and brown sugar and spooned the chicken from there into the rest of the mixture so the sauce would get in there too, and I had no problem with them being to dry. The remaining mixture we used as a dip for tortilla chips the next night! I will definitely make these again!

    These empanadas are so yummy! My husband and I loved them! Before I made them I read some reviews and many of them said that they were kind of dry. So I tweeked it a little bit and instead of adding just the peppers, I decided to put a couple of tablespoons of salsa in the mixture. Then you have your peppers, onions, and liquid all in one! The mixture makes quite a bit. One pastry wasn't enough, but the extras weren't wasted : The only reason I gave this four stars was becasue it is a little time consuming, but well worth it when they are done!
