MXMXmain
6 servings
Servings4
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano (preferably Mexican oregano)
2 medium poblano peppers, stemmed, seeded, and diced
1 large white onion, diced
2 jalapeños, diced (remove seeds if you are sensitive to heat)
6 cloves garlic, chopped
2-4 chipotle chiles in adobo, chopped (depending on how spicy you like things)
1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted tomatoes
1 cup beef broth
Sour cream and chopped cilantro, for garnish (optional)
1

Brown beef. Heat oil in a large, deep frying pan that is big enough to hold the meat. If you don't have a frying pan big enough use a large Dutch oven. Add beef, salt, cumin, and oregano and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until beef is browned, about 8 minutes.

2

Saute veggies. Add poblanos, onion, jalapenos, garlic, and chipotles and continue cooking until veggies begin to soften, about 10 minutes more.

3

Braise. Add tomatoes and broth, bring to a boil then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove lid and continue simmering until beef comes apart when pressed with a fork and sauce is thickened, about an hour and a half more.

4

Serve. Spoon over rice and top with sour cream and chopped cilantro or serve as tacos.
