Picadillo De Pollo Recipes

Steps:

• Cook and stir ground beef in a large stockpot until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain grease.
• Heat olive oil in small skillet over medium heat. Add onion, green bell pepper, and garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir into beef in the stockpot.
• Pour tomato sauce, water, cooking wine, and hot sauce into the stockpot. Stir in sazon seasoning, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer picadillo, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Split olives in half with your fingers and stir into the picadillo. Add squash. Simmer until liquid reduces but picadillo is not dry, 45 to 60 minutes. Season with salt.

Steps:

• Bring 6 whole tomatoes to a boil in a small pot. Transfer to a blender. Add 3/4 cup water, onion halves, and whole garlic clove. Blend until smooth.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and serrano pepper. Cook until onion is transparent. Add minced garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chopped tomato and cook for 1 minute more. Add ground beef; cook until browned, about 8 minutes.
• Pour canned tomato sauce into the beef mixture. Cook for 2 minutes. Mix in potatoes and carrots. Cook for 2 minutes; add the blended tomatoes, jalapeno, chicken bouillon, cumin, and bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well, reduce heat, and simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, saute onions, garlic, and pepper in olive oil until softened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add ground beef and olives and continue stirring to break up and brown the meat. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. When beef has browned, add tomato sauce gradually while stirring. Cook 1 to 2 minutes longer to incorporate sauce.
• Serve with rice and beans or tortillas.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, heat 1/4 cup olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, and saute until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 15 minutes. Add olives, raisins, and capers; cook 10 minutes. Set aside.
• In a large saute pan, heat remaining 1/4 cup oil until just beginning to smoke over high heat. Add chicken, and cook until dry, stirring constantly. Season with salt. Add reserved tomato mixture, bring to a boil, and cook for 5 minutes. Add almonds, cilantro, parsley, and mint. Remove from heat, and let cool. This may be made a day ahead and kept in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature, and remove bay leaf before stuffing chiles.
