Method
- Start by prepping your corn tortillas, lime, cilantro so the cooking goes quickly.
- Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the yellow onion and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the empanada and let it honey-glazed, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
- Stir in the yellow onion along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
- Taste and adjust, then finish with chili crisp right before serving.
- Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
