Steps:
- Heat a non-stick skillet on low-medium heat with oil. Saute onion, garlic, cilantro and spices until fragrant. Remove from heat.
- In a medium bowl, add chicken, corn, ranch dressing, salt and pepper with onion mix. Combine all together and set aside.
- Prepare Empanadas dough. In a mixing bowl, add flour, baking powder, salt, water and butter. Mix with your hands until a dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes. Transfer dough on a floured surface, flour the pin roll too. Roll dough to ¼ inch thick and use a 3.14 inch cookie cutter to cut out the rounds. Re roll scraps to make more rounds until no more dough is left.
- Put ¾ - 1 tablespoon filling in the center and lightly moisture the edge with water. Fold with your fingers and use a fork to crimp edges together. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
- Heat oil in a large deep pan to fry empanadas. Fry until golden brown, place on kitchen paper to remove excess of oil.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy.
