Rice Recipe: Cuban-Style Beef Picadillo

 
Recipe Category: Main Course
Cuban-Style Beef Picadillo
Cuban-Style Beef Picadillo

Cooking Instructions

A popular dinner in many Latin countries, picadillo has many regional variations. Typically made with rice, beans and ground beef, this Cuban-style picadillo (pronounced pi-ca-di-yo) is one of the zestier versions featuring raisins and green olives.

Heat the oil in a large, nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add beef into the skillet; brown evenly. Add onion, red pepper, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in raisins, tomato sauce, broth and olives. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes.  

Meanwhile, bring 2 cups (500 mL) of water to a boil. Add the rice and bay leaf. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 15 to 17 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from heat; stir in beans and let stand for 5 minutes. Discard bay leaf. Add coriander and fluff with a fork. 

Serve the rice and beans with the beef mixture on top and tortillas on the side
