Cuban picadillo is a comforting, family-friendly dish that’s perfect for a busy weeknight. It’s a quick, saucy beef dish made with ground beef simmered in a savory tomato sauce with onions, garlic, warm spices, briny green olives, and raisins—and it’s ready in about half an hour. If raisins sound unexpected, trust me—they add little pops of sweetness that really make the dish. Spoon it over rice and dinner’s done.
