Ingredients
- 10 empanada discos thawed
- 1 ¼ cup chili or another filling of your choice, like shredded chicken
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Place an empanada disco on a cutting board in front of you. Spoon 2 tablespoons of filling onto the disk, slightly off-center (see photos above). Fold the dough into a half-circle, encasing the filling side. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal them, then crimp with a fork. Repeat with remaining dough/filling to form 10 empanadas.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Brush onto the empanadas.
- Place the empanadas into your air fryer in a single layer cooking them in batches if necessary. Fry at 330°F for 8-10 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown.
