Salsa Verde Picadillo

jalapeños (use less or remove seeds for less spice)

 To a large skillet on medium high heat add 1 tbsp oil, add the tomatillos, jalapeños & onion. Cook stirring every couple of minutes for 7 minutes.

 Add the garlic cloves & cook for another 3-4 minutes. Turn off heat and let cool down for 5-10 minutes.

 Add all salsa veggies to a blender with 1 bunch of cilantro and salt to taste. Blend until smooth.

 To the same skillet where you cooked the salsa veggies, on medium high heat add another tablespoon of oil, add the ground beef, break into pieces and cook for about 5-7 minutes.

 Add the diced potatoes and cook for 5 more minutes.

 Add all of the spices and cook for 3-5 minutes more.

 Add the diced onion, bell peppers & mix to combine.

 Pour in the salsa verde, 2 bay leaves, the oregano & 1/2 cup of water. Mix to combine, reduce heat to medium low & cover with a lid. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender.

 Serve the Picadillo with rice, beans & tortillas.
