Time 2h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound yellow onions, chopped
6 scallions, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 pounds ground beef
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 ½ tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon butter, or as needed
36 empanada pastry discs
1 egg white, beaten

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions, scallions, and bell pepper. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add ground beef, oregano, salt, cayenne pepper, and cumin to the onion mixture. Cook and stir beef until no longer pink, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, then cover and place in the refrigerator until meat is completely cooled, about 1 hour.
  • Remove filling from the refrigerator and transfer into a colander to drain. Return filling to the Dutch oven.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Liberally grease a baking sheet with butter.
  • Place about 2 tablespoons filling into the center of an empanada disc. Fold empanada in half into a crescent shape, press the edges of the dough together with a fork or your fingers to seal, and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining empanadas and filling. Brush tops with egg white.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
