Pabellón Criollo is a classic Venezuelan dish that consists of shredded beef, black beans, rice, and fried plantains. It is a hearty and flavorful meal that represents the country's culinary heritage. The beef is slow-cooked with onions, garlic, and spices until it becomes tender and flavorful. The black beans are cooked with onions, peppers, and spices to create a rich and creamy texture. The rice is cooked separately and served alongside the beef and beans. The dish is completed with sweet and ripe plantains that are fried until golden brown. Pabellón Criollo is a popular choice for lunch or dinner and is often enjoyed with a side of arepas or cornbread.
