Palmito guisado

Palmito guisado is a traditional dish originating from the Dominican Republic. This stew is usually made with a combination of cooked heart of palm, garlic, tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, olives, oil, salt, and black pepper. The onions are sautéed in olive oil until translucent, and the remaining ingredients except the heart of palm are then added to the pot.


The stew is covered and simmered until the vegetables are fully cooked. The heart of palm is added with some water, and the stew is then simmered uncovered until the liquid becomes reduced to half. Pamito guisado is seasoned with salt and pepper before serving.
