Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a combination of cooked turkey and black beans. This will give the empanadas a more complex flavor.
- Be sure to season the turkey and black bean mixture well. This will help to bring out the flavors of the ingredients.
- Use a variety of vegetables in the empanada filling. This will add color, texture, and flavor to the dish.
- Be careful not to overfill the empanadas. Too much filling will make them difficult to seal and they may burst open during cooking.
- Be sure to fry the empanadas in a hot skillet. This will help to create a crispy crust.
- Serve the empanadas with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
