I love and appreciate your pronunciation of of Picadillo, Chorizo, and Ancho. Nice job!

[kellywalker]

Picadillo makes a great burrito. Forty years later I finally figured out what those New Mexico women were selling at the high school football concession stand. Delicious.

Your recipes are able to be modified to suit many palettes! Thanks once again for your suggestions and opinions which bring many flavor profiles together!

Made this yesterday morning (on my day off) and it was a hit! THANK YOU! I've been getting back into my love and hobby of cooking after goingthrough a hard year and I always look forward to trying new recipes. Thank you :) You never disappoint.

I have lately been eating more eggs and would love your creative twist on sunnyside eggs. Masala sunnyside? Would love to see that!
ALSO would love your take on a mexican dish called Aporreado - a dish with beef, salsa, and eggs. SO DELICIOUS

I've made this many times! But as an Indian dish-- no oregano, but the cumin stays-- grated ginger, curry powder, carrots, peas. Great on rice or with a flat, handheld bread like roti or Naan.
I'm gonna try this as a flavor alternative, for sure!
As suggested, it works with all the ground meats!😊

Outstanding presentation, Outstanding recipe, Outstanding video !!!
You have a tremendous channel !!

[italtexasgal]

I've made your recipe 3x since discovering it. My recipe was so basic before, so I thank you for the flavor ideas. I added chipotle corn, pinto means and, a turn of crema. It was delish!

[joeyankie]

Looks Amazing!! I’m going to make this tonight using some of the last potatoes, tomatoes, and chilis from my garden. I plan on adding olives, putting the mixture into empanada wrappers and frying up!!
Just have to come up with a good dip to dunk them into!
Can’t wait, thank you!

I have watched quite a few videos on how to make picadillo. All quite different. I took parts of many recipes and made some last week. It was great. But now I watch this video and i think I want to try again but more like this one. This one looks great. Thanks

Working in the gulf of mexico ( texas coast) I used to always eat a picadillo breakfast taco. Was the highlight of my day.

[BonJoviGirl]

Absolutely love your recipes, watching you make them and hearing you explain them! Also love how you leave it open to so many variations. My favorite part is how you engage with your subscribers!❤ Here in El Paso this is a very popular dish and your recipe is my favorite way to make it😊 👏👌

I love how all of the Mexican Cuisine Food Critics, start their comment with (I'm Mexican)!

Whether you are Mexican or not, the truth of the matter is, Mexican Cuisine is extremely localized. You can literally travel through all thirty one states of Mexico, as well as the Capitol City, and be 99.999% certain; that if you ordered the same dish by name in each state, there would be, at the very minimum, some sort of variation in what you requested, and that is simply a fact.
Because you grew up eating traditional Mexican meals, prepared in a particular way for the majority of your life, does in no way, invalidate all other versions as being"Mexican".
Mexican Cuisine is just as diverse, as the Citizens of Mexico, and the willingness for Hispanics to embrace that diversity over hundreds of years, In My Opinion, is what makes Mexico and the Mexican Culture, so Unique and Interesting!!!🇲🇽

This. Thanks for this recipe. I wanted more of a kick and the jalapeños did the trick. Great recipe and thanks for sharing.

[scuzpwns]

Perfect timing, gonna try this tonight.

Looks so good! Heading to the market today to get the stuff to make this tonight...can't wait!

[vaughnslavin]

Thank you! You are always fun and inspirational to watch.

I know what I'm prepping for my lunch next week!

[garrett]

My wife and I made it similar to this and put in a tortilla (burrito style) and added ghost pepper sriracha, it's amazing.

[DentureDEPT]

Fantastic recipe!! Cooked it last week and it was amazing. I used habanero peppers from my backyard and added a little tomato chicken powder. Thanks
