There are a few times in life when a meal is so expertly crafted and planned that it is nothing short of genius. Last night, I had one of those meals. The empanada
The dish was excellently prepared. Grilled, juicy, and fresh without a hint of fishiness. A glaze of tangerine sauce brought a hint of tart sweetness. The empanada was placed on a mound of sweet plantain rice. The combination of the empanada and rice alone was to die for!
However, as only expert chefs can achieve, additional garnishes provided even bolder, beautiful tastes. Pickled onions topping the empanada made for an even finer taste experience, while green beans hidden under the empanada added freshness and completed each bite
