This is a Puerto Rican staple which may look like an empanada but is not fried but baked. In this recipe it has a sofrito base and sweet crab meat all in puffed pastry. I hope you like it.

1 sheet puffed pastry
8 ounces crab meat
1 small yellow onion, diced fine
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 green bell pepper diced fine
1 bunch cilantro, chopped fine
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
Olive oil for cooking

Heat oven to 375.

In a skillet on medium add oil.

Add onion and green pepper and cook until onions become translucent. Add salt and pepper.

Add garlic and cilantro. Cook for 4 minutes until cilantro is wilted.

Add crab meat.

Roll out puff pastry and cut into 4-inch squares.

Place 2 tablespoons crab mixture in center and fold over in a triangle.

Seal edges. Crimp with a fork.

Bake for 18-22 minutes.
