Pollo Tropical has released a new empanada that comes filled with everyone’s favorite chocolate spread, Nutella. For those unfamiliar, empanadas are a baked or fried pastry turnover filled with savory ingredients such as sausage or beef.
Pollo Tropical’s new Nutella Empanada features a crispy-fried pastry filled with Nutella’s chocolate hazelnut spread.
In addition to the Nutella Empanada, the chain is also offering Tostones as a new side option. Tostones, also known as Patacones in the Caribbean, are twice-fried plantains with a crispy outside and a soft inside. They also come sprinkled with salt and are perfect for dipping in your favorite sauce.
Tostones come in regular and large, priced at $3.19 and $3.89, respectively. The Nutella Empanada, on the other hand, carries a suggested price of $2.59. Prices may vary.
You can find the new menu items at participating Pollo Tropical restaurants nationwide for a limited time.

So frigging good. If you like Nutella, you’ll love this! So flaky and light with a generous amount of Nutella. Honestly, it took a lot of will power to NOT go back for another order or two. There’s always tomorrow 🥰
