DIRECTIONS

1- Preheat oven to 350ºF.

2- In a medium sized skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium high heat.

3- Once oil is shimmering, sauté onions for 3 minutes or until onions are soft.

4- Add chorizo to the pan with the onions and using the back of a wooden spoon, break into pieces. Continue to sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes.

5- Add prepared fried potatoes to the chorizo mixture and sprinkle in a pinch of salt. Sauté for 30 seconds and transfer to a bowl and allow to cool.

6- To make the empanadas, take beaten egg mixture and lightly brush one side of the empanada dough with egg and fill one half of the dough with 2 tablespoons of chorizo mixture and 1 ½ tablespoons of the chihuahua cheese.

7- Carefully fold in half and using a fork, press tines into the edge of dough to seal. Repeat steps until 16 empanadas are made.

8- Brush the other side of the empanada with remaining egg wash and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Empanadas can also be fried, just omit the egg wash. If frying, fry at 350ºF for 4 minutes or until an even golden brown is achieved.

9- While the empanadas are baking, make the lime crema. Place the sour cream, lime zest, Kosher salt, lime juice and garlic in a stainless steel bowl and whisk until well combined. Reserve.
