Instructions
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and peppers to the pan and cook until the onions are transparent.
Add the garlic to the pan and cook until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the pan and sprinkle with salt, sazón, and adobo. As the beef browns, break up big chunks with your spoon.
When the beef has browned, add the sofrito and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the olives, raisins, white vinegar, tomato sauce, bay leaves, and water. Continue to cook, occasionally stirring, for 10 minutes.
Take the pan off the heat and allow the Picadillo to cool slightly before serving.
