Day 71 - Chicken and Black Bean Empanadas

Watching the movie Turbo makes my family want Mexican.
So typed in what I had in the fridge and freezer and came up with this.
Looked awesome and tasted awesome too.


Chicken and Black Bean Puff Pastry Empanadas

- oil
- onion finely chopped
-garlic
-cumin
-oregano
-1 can of black beans ( at an asian grocery but maybe if we complain enough Woolworths or Coles will stock them!!! - help me everyone)
-shredded cooked chicken
-salt and pepper to taste
-fresh chopped cilantro or coriander


Cook the onion and garlic in oil.  Sprinkle a tsp or so of cumin and oregano.  Then add the remaining ingredients. 

Spoon on puff pastry and fold into a triangle ( I added some cheese at the stage)  Then butter or oil the puff pastry and put into oven for 15 minutes or until crust is nice and brown.
