Check out Food52's new series Recipe Drop, where one of our Test Kitchen experts walks us through a brand-new recipe they developed just for Food52. Tune in for exclusive original recipes, from buttery pastries to showstopping roasts."Empanadas, empanadillas, pastelillos, pastelitos, pastelillitos So many names! So many opinions! Like any dish shared throughout Latin America, everyone claims to have the best version. Ill keep my biases to myself (Puerto Rico and Colombia for the win). For our purposes, especially here in the United States, Ill just be referring to them as empanadas.This simple flour dough comes together very easily, with no equipment and minimal effort. Camarones al ajillo, or shrimp cooked in garlic and wine, is my favorite filling, with beef picadillo coming in as a close second. While a deep-fried empanada is hard to beat, these would also bake up beautifully. Either way, these empanadas make the perfect party finger food, picnic snack, or just enjoy them right over the kitchen counter as they come fresh out of the fryer."
