Copycat Laredo Taco Companys Picadillo Recipes

Steps:

• Put the oil, onions, garlic, and spices in a medium skillet, season with salt and cook over medium to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until tender, about 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the tomatoes, and their juices and boil to thicken, about 2 minutes. Stir in the beef and chicken broth, adjust the heat so the mixture simmers and cook until the beef is cooked through and the mixture thickens, about 15 minutes. Stir in cilantro, taste, and season with salt and pepper as desired. Transfer to a serving bowl and cover.
• To make the taco shells: Pour enough frying oil into a small skillet so its about 3/4 of an inch deep; heat over medium to medium-high. Holding 1 edge of a tortilla with tongs, lay the other half in the oil, keeping it flat with a spatula. Cook until crisp, 30 second to 1 minute. Flip the tortilla over and repeat with the other half, holding the first side of the tortilla at an angle to make an open shell, cook for about 1 minute more. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Put the fixings and meat in individual bowls and the taco shells on a platter. Serve encouraging your diners to build their own tacos, with meat in the shell with fixings on top.

Steps:

• Put the water, onions, garlic, bell peppers and potatoes in a stew pot and bring to a boil. Turn the temperature to low, cover the pot, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes, bran, and spices to the pot and simmer for 10 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and brown the meat, crumbling it up as it cooks.
• Add the meat to the stew pot, cover, and simmer 10 to 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender (it is better to overcook the potatoes than to under cook them).

Steps:

• First, stir fry potatoes in olive oil.
• Take potatoes out from oil, set apart.
• Into the remaining oil in the skillet, add the ground meat, tomatoes, salt, garlic, and pepper and mix well.
• Once the meat is partially cooked, add potatoes and rest of ingredients.
• Simmer on medium heat for about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. In a medium heated skillet add olive oil, onions, and garlic. Saute until slightly translucent. Add ground meat. Cook until ground meat is done.
• 2. Add beef stock, Rotel, and potatoes. Turn heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
• 3. Add coriander, cumin, garlic powder, and bay leaf. Cook for 10 mins or when the potatoes are completely tender, not mushy. Remove bay leaf.
• 4. Warm up tortilla, add filling, and serve.

Steps:

• Place diced potatoes in boiling water and cook until soft.
• In the mean time fry the ground beef in a pan over medium high heat.
• When the meat is nearly cooked add the onion and continue cooking until the onions are soft and browned.
• Add the chili powder, coriander, cumin, and pepper, cooked potatoes and minced garlic.
• Also add a little water to your meat to moisten it and pick up some of the bits of meat from the bottom of the pan, it only needs to be about a 1/4 of a cup.
