Cook’s Note
This recipe may seem a bit salty for some palates, but when paired with the sweet plantains in the pastelon dish it balances well. If you use this in a different dish you may want to alter the amount of salt.

Super easy and super delicious. I did not find it to be too salty AT ALL, but then again... I'm cuban... and we like salty. Lol.

Amazing! I love the picadillo at Sol in San Rafael and this recipe does it justice. I was initially worried that it might be too runny so I cooked the mixture at a lower temperature longer (since it was being served over rice and not in a casserole) and it came out delicious! I'm making a double batch today!
