How to Make Picadillo - Lizette Invita

Start with ground meat (90/10 or 80/20) and season with salt and pepper.

Cook the meat until it's halfway done.

Create a space in the pan and add 1 large onion, 1/2 green bell pepper, 1 sweet pepper, and 2 cloves of minced garlic.

Add 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, 1/2 tablespoon of oregano, 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika to the vegetables.

Sauté the vegetables until they are nice and soft.

Add 2 tablespoons of tomato paste and incorporate it with the meat and vegetables, allowing the flavor to cook off.

Add chopped cilantro and vegetable broth (or beef broth) to the mixture.

Slice Spanish olives with pimento and add them to the mixture, allowing the meat to absorb the flavor.
