Instructions

Spanish-style Chorizo is highly seasoned dried and cured pork sausage made with savory garlic and smoky paprika. Popular in Spanish-speaking islands in the Caribbean like Cuba, chorizo has become a popular filling for empanadas. Here, the chorizo is chopped and sautéed with a classic sofrito before being enclosed in easy-to-use GOYA® Empanada Dough for Frying (pastry rounds for turnovers). Sealed with a fork and then fried, these Cuban-Style Empanadas are not to be missed.
