Serves: 8–10 empanadas
Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 25 mins

🛒 Ingredients:

For the filling:

  • 1/2 lb ground beef or ground chicken 🥩🍗

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped 🧅

  • 1 hard-boiled egg, chopped 🥚

  • 1/4 cup green olives, sliced 🫒

  • 2 tbsp chopped red bell pepper 🫑

  • 1 tsp paprika 🌶️

  • Salt & pepper to taste 🧂

  • 1/2 tsp Mad Dog 357 Pure Gold Hot Sauce 💛🔥 (start small — it’s intense!)

  • 1 tsp olive oil 🛢️

For the dough (or use pre-made empanada wrappers):

  • 2 1/4 cups flour 🌾

  • 1/2 tsp salt 🧂

  • 1/2 cup cold butter, diced 🧈

  • 1 egg 🥚

  • 1/3 cup cold water 💧

👨🍳 Instructions:

  1. Make the Dough (Skip if using pre-made):
    In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly. Beat egg with water and stir into the flour mix. Knead until smooth. Wrap and chill for 30 mins.

  2. Cook the Filling:
    In a skillet, heat olive oil. Sauté onions and red bell pepper until soft. Add ground meat and cook through. Stir in olives, chopped egg, paprika, and Mad Dog 357 Pure Gold 💛🔥. Season to taste. Let cool slightly.

  3. Assemble Empanadas:
    Roll out dough and cut into 4–5 inch circles. Place 1–2 tbsp of filling in the center. Fold over and crimp edges with a fork 🥟. Brush with beaten egg for golden color.

  4. Bake or Fry:
    Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 mins until golden brown 🌟 — or fry until crisp and bubbly 🫧.

  5. Serve:
    Enjoy hot, with chimichurri or extra Mad Dog 357 Pure Gold on the side if you're feeling brave! 💥

✅ Tips:

  • Add a pinch of cumin or chili flakes for extra depth 🌶️

  • Make it vegetarian with sautéed lentils, potatoes, and spinach 🥔🌱

  • These freeze great — perfect for batch cooking! ❄️
