The video is a recipe tutorial for making green banana empanadas. The host begins by boiling two green bananas for 40 minutes, then prepares a filling made from ground chicken, onions, garlic, and spices. The boiled bananas are then mashed and kneaded into a dough, which is used to form the empanadas. The empanadas are filled with the chicken filling, and some are also topped with mozzarella cheese.
