In a bowl, place the flour with salt, butter, and vinegar. Gradually pour in the water and mix until everything is incorporated, form a ball with the dough, cover with a cloth, and let rest for 15 minutes. Open the Goya® olive salad jar, drain the amount to be used with a strainer, and set aside. In a skillet with vegetable oil, fry the onion, bell pepper, ground beef, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes and add the oregano, cumin, chili pepper, boiled egg, the previously drained Goya® olive salad, and the green onions; cook a few more minutes, let cool, and set aside. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is half a centimeter thick. Cut the dough into circles about 5 cm wide and set aside. Fill each circle with two tablespoons of the filling and close them by folding them inward. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush with melted butter. Bake for 30 minutes at 180 °C. Serve your empanadas on a board and enjoy with chimichurri.
