Picadillo (Cuban Meat Sauce)
1 lb. lean ground meat
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped garlic (I use the chopped kind sold in jar)
1/3 cup chopped green olives
1/4 cup raisins
1 can diced tomatoes with juices
1/2 cup white wine
salt/pepper to taste
Brown meat in large skillet and drain. Add onions, green pepper, and garlic; continue to brown with meat. Once meat is well browned, add olives, raisins, wine, tomatoes and salt/pepper. Cover and simmer about 30 minutes, stirring frequently. (You can always add more white wine, olives, raisins, etc. to suit your tastes....I'm not big on measuring so I just throw in whatever.)
