Brown the meat in a Dutch oven, then let the slow-cooker work its magic as the rich spices meld. You can also serve the versatile, tender beef over baked potatoes instead of in soft tortilla shells. Ingredients:
2 pounds boneless beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon chili powder |
1 (6-oz.) can tomato paste |
2 cups beef broth |
1 small white onion |
1 (8-oz.) can tomato sauce |
1/2 medium-size green bell pepper |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
flour or corn tortillas, warmed |
toppings: shredded cheddar or monterey jack cheese, sour cream |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle beef evenly with salt.
2. Cook beef, in batches, in hot oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes or until browned on all sides. Remove beef, reserving drippings in Dutch oven. Add 1 Tbsp. chili powder to Dutch oven; cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Stir in tomato paste, and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Add 2 cups beef broth, and stir, scraping bits from bottom of Dutch oven. Return beef to Dutch oven, and stir.
3. Place beef mixture in a 4 1/2-quart slow cooker. Add onion and next 4 ingredients. Cook on HIGH 4 hours or on LOW 6 hours or until beef is tender. Serve with warm tortillas and desired toppings.
