Grilled Beef Empanadas are a savory pastry originating from Latin American cuisine, celebrated for their flaky crust and flavorful fillings. This version features seasoned ground beef, onions, garlic, and a blend of spices, all encased in a golden-brown dough that’s grilled rather than fried, offering a lighter preparation method. High in protein from the lean beef, these empanadas provide energy and support muscle health. The inclusion of vegetables like onions and garlic introduces antioxidants and essential nutrients. However, they may contain moderate amounts of saturated fat from the beef and the dough. Opt for whole wheat pastry to boost fiber content and consider pairing with a fresh side salad to balance the meal. Grilled Beef Empanadas deliver a delicious taste of Latin culture while supporting healthier cooking techniques.
