CUBAN SUMMER FIESTA!

I developed a taste for Cuban food back when I was a flight attendant and traveling all the time. This recipe really takes me back to my layovers in Miami where I got to enjoy all the authentic flavors of the city's varied cultures. So delicious! Back then I couldn't wait to go through Miami so I could grab some good food... and now I can't wait to make this again right at home!

  • Add the sliced vegetables to the pot and cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes until caramelized. Add the garlic and spices and cook for another minute. Add the white wine and bring it to a rapid boil, deglazing the bottom of the pan (scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan).
