Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/4 cup chimichurri sauce
  • 1 package empanada dough
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup corn (canned or frozen)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and ground beef to the skillet. Cook until the beef is browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the corn and chimichurri sauce, and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the empanada dough and cut into circles (about 4-5 inches in diameter).
  6. Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal. You can crimp the edges with a fork for a decorative touch.
  7. Arrange the empanadas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious chimichurri beef empanadas!
