Incredible Portuguese/Hispanic comfort food. Thanks to my Dad for preparing this recipe so often when we were growing up. Ingredients:
3 lbs chuck roast |
1 onion, halved pole to pole and sliced |
1 bell pepper, sliced into 2-inch strips |
4 garlic cloves |
1 (20 ounce) can whole canned tomatoes |
2 tablespoons grandma's spanish pepper (or use a combination of chili powder and ground cumin) |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground |
6 flour tortillas (optional) |
20 ounces refried beans (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cut the chuck roast into 2-inch cubes and season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil on medium-high in a Dutch oven until shimmering.
3. Add the meat and brown on all sides.
4. Add sliced onion and saute for 5 minutes.
5. Add bell pepper and garlic and saute for another 5 minutes.
6. Add tomatoes, and seasonings and bring to a simmer.
7. Cover and simmer on low for three hours on stove. Alternatively, you may cover and put in a 300-degree oven and cook for three hours. You may also cook for 8 hours on low in a 6-quart slow cooker (or 6 hours on high).
8. Serve in tortillas with beans (like a burrito) or on its own in a bowl and enjoy!
