Lent and meatless Fridays are starting soon. So inspired in grandma’s bacalao empanadas for lent I made Spanish salmon empanadas.
The Salmon Empanadas are fairly easy to make and so flavorful. The ingredients include ready-to-use canned salmon, garlic, capers, olives, olive oil, diced potatoes, and tomato puree.
The Spanish salmon dish is seasoned with Knorr® Tomato Bouillon with Chicken Flavor to give that authentic Latino flavor.
We bought the 2.2 lb version to add flavor to many of our favorite Latino dishes. Such as traditional Mexican rice, picadillo chiles rellenos, grilled beef salad, and many more.
Knorr® adds authentic flavor to traditional or to everyday dishes beyond just soups, stews, and rice
Flavorful Spanish Salmon Empanadas for your lent menu!
The Knorr® Bouillon has been part of my family’s kitchen for generations. It is a staple of our home-style cooking and grandma’s beloved Mexican dishes. Find Knorr® Bouillon at your local Walmart in the Hispanic aisle. Or find it on Amazon.
Spanish Salmon Empanadas paired with a fresh salad!
Include Knorr® Bouillon in your recipes to give that irresistible flavor to any dish even if it doesn’t have chicken or beef.
Learn how to make the Spanish Salmon Empanadas by watching the video and following the step-by-step instructions on the recipe card. The empanadas are flavorful and a traditional option that marries the Spanish and the Latino cultures in just one bite.
You can use the same ingredients to create individual Spanish Salmon Pies for a more upscale presentation when entertaining at home. Prepare a fresh salad to go alongside and make it a complete meal.
