Adding Tomatoes to Beef Picadillo Poblano Peppers

So my last step to this process here is I'm going to add a can. This is a 14 and 1/2 ounce can of diced tomatoes and I got the diced organic tomatoes just because I love the flavor of organic tomatoes so much more than conventional. One other thing about can tomatoes that the tomatoes are always picked whenever they're at the ripest and freshness peak. So it's really a good thing to use can tomatoes you do want to be careful though check for additives and preservatives and a lot of extra salt. You want to make sure that you get those without or you get your tomatoes without all those extra things. If tomatoes are in season by all means go ahead and use fresh tomatoes you can just do small dice and pop them in your pan here too. It's also a good way to use up ripen tomatoes if you have some that are going to go bad. So I'm going to pour this into my container here and we're just going to let it all simmer together. Now the other thing about adding tomatoes to this dish it's an acid and you're adding the acid to the protein which is our beef and that it is going to kind of help denature the protein just a little bit and make for a little bit of a more tender product. So as it cooks it's actually going to become a little bit more tender which is a really good thing and a good advantage on our part.
