Instructions

1. Cook seasoning

  1. Heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat in a large skillet.Cook and stir the onions until they turn translucent. Add the bell pepper, tomatoes, hearts of palm, garlic, oregano, black pepper, olives, and tomato sauce. Cook stirring until everything is heated through (about 2 minutes).

3. Serving

Notes

  • You can add some crushed Scotch bonnet pepper when you are sauteing the seasonings, or some hot sauce at the end. It's not a traditional touch, but it's my preference.
