Start by boiling tomatillos and serrano peppers in a pot with a little water until cooked.

Cut beef flank into small cubes, not too small, not too big.

Cook bacon in a pot until crispy, then remove and set aside, leaving the fat in the pot.

Sear the beef cubes in the bacon fat until no pink is showing, seasoning with a little salt and pepper.

Blend the cooked tomatillos and serrano peppers with cilantro, garlic, oregano, cumin, and beef bouillon to make a sauce.

Add the sauce to the pot with the seared beef and a cup of water, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Cover and cook on medium low for about 30 minutes until the meat is tender.

Add the reserved bacon and chopped onion back into the pot and cook for another 10 minutes on low.

Serve with black beans, avocado, radishes, and lime.
