Picadillo is a staple Cuban comfort dish made from ground beef cooked with onions, bell peppers, garlic, tomato sauce, green olives, raisins, and capers, seasoned with cumin, oregano, and a touch of bay leaf. The most iconic version, Picadillo a la Habanera, hails from Havana and balances savory, sweet, and briny flavors. It’s traditionally served with white rice, fried eggs, plantains, and black beans.
Common variations include beef-only versions without raisins, vegan picadillo with lentils, or spicy adaptations with chili flakes.
