This is a wonderful Cuban picadillo recipe with ground beef and chorizo sausage. I serve it in a bowl (like chili), on a roll, or over cornbread.

Ingredients

  • olive oil: 2 Tbsp
  • ground beef: 1 pound
  • chorizo sausage: 0.5 pound (chopped)
  • onion: 1 piece (chopped)
  • red bell pepper: 0.5 cup (chopped)
  • garlic: 2 clove (chopped)
  • ground cumin: 1 Tbsp

  • oregano: 1 tsp (dried)
  • paprika: 1 tsp
