Directions:

  1. Chop uncooked beef into 1-1/2 cubes. Boil for 1-1/2 hours, then shred. Reserve broth.
  2. Simmer 8 ounces broth with garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano and salt for 10 minutes. In separate pan, saute bell peppers, onions, tomatillos and tomatoes in 2 Tbsp oil. Add sauteed vegetables to the broth mixture. If necessary, add more broth. Bring to a boil then remove from heat.
  3. Slightly warm tortillas in microwave. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture into center of tortilla, sprinkle with shredded cheese (optional). Wrap like a burrito, folding ends shut. Use a toothpick to hold tortilla shut.
  4. Fry over medium high heat in a little oil, until lightly brown and warm in center. Continue to add oil to pan as needed.
