Pollo Picado Recipe – Chicken with Green Pepper, Onions and Tomatoes

Chicken with green peppers, onions and tomatoes – what’s not to love about Pollo Picado!

We tossed in a little cream and a few spices and created a tasty little dinner dish that is ready in 30 minutes or less.

This chicken recipe also makes excellent leftovers and heats up nicely for lunch the next day. Serve over rice or scoop into your favorite tortilla with a little side of sour cream.

Cooking Tips for Polo Picado –

  • Try to cute the chicken into cubes that are the same in size so they cook at the same rate.
  • Small cubes of chicken don’t take that long to cook. You always want to cook the chicken through for safety reasons, but try not to over cook or the chicken will turn out tough.
  • Dice the green pepper into small pieces.
  • We always grate our own cheese because it tastes better and melts better.
