Pollo Campero Chicken Empanadas!
Pollo Campero, a wonderful fast casual restaurant that serves up amazing latin cuisine, including fried chicken, empanadas, and bowls. I opted to get the 3 empanada meal with a side of rice, for $7.99. The empanadas were delivered to my table hot and fresh, made in house might I add! In about 5 minutes.
The inside was warm and decadent, melty cheese was stuffed throughout, with deliciously seasoned shredded chicken, sweet corn, and salsa verde stuffed to the brim. The cheese sort of acted like a glue, containing everything within the warm and flaky crust.

The crust was perfectly crispy, buttery, and flaky, rivaling that of a pastry. While the outside was crisp, the inside remained fluffy and chewy, a winning combo.

The rice was bursting with flavor, well seasoned, with herbs corn and roasted peppers throughout. I was absolutely impressed with each bite, the sweetness and pop from the corn was a great compliment to the savory dish.
All and all, this is a MUST TRY if you have one nearby, cheap, good portions, and superb quality.
10/10
