First, do I only cook the arepas on one side before transferring them into the oven to finish baking? And second, if I wanted to add chicken, should I add already cooked chicken? I am thinking that would be the case but wanted to double check. Thanks a bunch. Looking forward to trying these out.

Polenta and cornmeal are two different things.

How long do I need to stir? I am using Bob’s Red Mill yellow corn Polenta.
Help!

Delicious I added a little butter and sugar to the mix and they reminded me of the best Colombian arepas I had.

Hello! No, but that can sometimes happen if you cut into them right after baking. Let them rest on the pan after you take them out of the oven, and they will continue to bake. After a few minutes, you can cut into them and they shouldn’t be doughy inside!

I followed the package directions and the only difference was that it instructed to knead the dough for a minute. I put some chicken and cheese in some, I made some non-stuffed and a bit thinner so they were crispy and topped them with salsa and avocado. I have also seen arepas made plain and thick but cut down the middle and stuffed with a lot of yummy ingredients. I personally love them crispy and topped! I agree these taste bland plain, bring the flavor with the toppings or stuffing!

I haven’t! But that’s a great idea, I should put that on my list of things to try!
