    Was excellent....But where is the green pepper?? Every good Cuban knows you have to start with a sofrito....You cook onion, green pepper, and garlic in olive oil. Then you add the meat. mix well with the sofrito..cook for a few minutes , then add spices and liquid, including tomatoes. Cook a little longer...last things in are olives..Serve with White Rice on the side, and Cuban style Black Beans. Delicious !!!Enjoy with ice cold beer!!

    Very good recipe as is, but I like it very flavorful and added chopped green peppers, more bay leaves, saffron, a little more brine from the olives (and a little less salt, and a small amount of beef broth because I like it a little soupier. With black beans and rice and fried ripe plantain, I was in heaven.

    One of my "go to" meals. I omitted the raisins and used chicken broth in place of wine. Great with yellow rice.

    This was a delicious dish but I tweaked it a bit: I didn't use wine/sherry, I never knew a Cuban home cook who used wine in cooking. Also omitted the cayenne pepper, to keep it more authentically Cuban. But with those tweaks it was delicious and I served it over rice. Also served tostones with this dish and they were a perfect accompaniment.

    I love how quick and easy this dish was and didn't sacrifice taste. I added more cayenne pepper and cumin. Took out the raisons. The left overs I used for tacos the next day. Everyone loved it

    Easy to make, and very good. Great for when you want something different for groundmeat!

    this recipe is incredibly easy and it has two of my favorite things: raisins and onions!

    use the largest pan you can--there will be a lot of stirring!
