Instructions
Heat olive oil in a shallow sauce pain. Add garlic, onion, red bell pepper, and potatoes and cook over medium-high heat until golden brown. If using Beyond Meat™, add to pan now and break apart mixture using a spatula.
Stir in tomato paste, oregano, cumin, salt, cayenne powder, and black pepper to the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
Add the raisins and wine and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes or until potatoes are cooked to fork tender.
Finally, add the lentils (if not using Beyond Meat™), olives, and capers. Mix and cook for 5 minutes more over medium heat. Serve immediately with chopped pecans and chopped parsley for garnish. Serve over wild or yellow rice.
