These tasty hand pies are made with a cornmeal-based dough and packed with big flavor from chili crisp-coated shrimp and andouille sausage. Then they’re served alongside an avocado-lime dipping sauce that you’ll dream about long after the hand pies are gone. Level Intermediate Prep Time 40 minutes Cook Time 20 minutes Serves 10 Cook it With Our Cast Iron Pizza Pan Ingredients Filling 25-30 (½ package) small shrimp, raw, deveined, tail-off 2-3 tablespoons chili crisp, divided Salt Pepper 1-2 tablespoons olive oil 3 shallots, diced 3-4 garlic cloves, diced 1 tablespoon ginger, finely chopped 2 carrots, sliced matchsticks style 4 oz (½ can) water chestnuts, drained and chopped 6 oz (½ package) of andouille sausage, chopped into small pieces 7 oz (½ can) of black beans, drained and rinsed 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce 1-2 tablespoons Greek yogurt 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce ½ juice of lemon 3 green onions, diced ½ cup fresh cilantro Pastry 1 ¼ cups cornmeal, plus more for dusting surface 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour 1 cup grated parmesan 1 teaspoon salt 16 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and cold 1 tablespoon chili crisp ¼ - ½ cup vodka, chilled 2-5 tablespoons Ice water, as needed 1 egg, for brushing crust Coarse salt Dipping Sauce 1 cup Greek yogurt 1 avocado Juice of lime Salt 1 cup fresh cilantro Directions Preheat your oven to 425°F and place a cast iron pizza pan on the middle rack. Coat shrimp with 1 tablespoon of chili crisp. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add shallots. After they soften, about 2-3 minutes, add garlic and ginger. Stir, then add carrots and water chestnuts. Add chopped sausage and black beans. Stir and cook, about 3 minutes. Make sauce: In a bowl, combine 1-2 tablespoons chili crisp, sriracha sauce, yogurt, soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice. Stir. Add shrimp to the skillet and stir with other ingredients. Reduce heat, then add sauce and cook briefly, about 2 minutes. Shrimp will not be cooked fully. Turn off heat, add green onions, and cilantro to the skillet mixture. Set aside. Add cornmeal, flour, parmesan, and salt to a food processor. Pulse, add cubed butter, then pulse until mixture resembles coarse sand. Add chili crisp and pulse to combine. While pulsing, add chilled vodka. Then add ice water, as needed, until the mixture resembles a clumpy dough ball. Prepare the surface by dusting with cornmeal and roll dough flat, about ⅛” thick. Cut out pastries using a 5”-6” pastry circle cutter to cut out 10 circles (yield may vary). Spread a generous ¼ cup filling on one half of each circle, leaving room to seal the circle. Use your finger to wet the bottom-half edge of the pastry circle, then fold to make a half-moon shape, pressing the sides together, then using a fork to crimp the pastry. Repeat this process. Using a sharp knife, make 2 vents in the pastry. Brush each pastry with egg wash and sprinkle lightly with coarse salt. Arrange pastries on a hot pizza pan and return to the oven to bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. While pastries bake, prepare sauce for dipping. Combine yogurt, avocado, lime juice, salt, and cilantro. Use an immersion blender or food processor to blend. Remove pastries from the oven and allow to rest a few minutes before transferring to the serving tray. Garnish with green onion, fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges.
