Tonight I made a classic cuban dish called Picadillo. It was divine.
This dish is kind of a cuban take on hamburger casserole. It is one of those simple recipes where all you have to do is throw a bunch of ingredients in a skillet and then let those ingredients slowly simmer and marry together. And this marriage is incredibly delicious. This picadillo recipe includes white onion, ground round beef, garlic, beef broth, raisins, pimiento-stuffed olives, capers, tomato paste, and freshly ground black pepper. All of this yummy-ness is then served over rice. The flavor of Picadillo is sweet and savory at the same time. The sweetness of the raisins combined with the saltiness of the olives and capers is amazing. I really loved this dish.
