Categories     main-dish

Time 3h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 to 10 dried New Mexico chiles
4 cloves garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil
One 4- to 5-pound chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 large onion, sliced
2 cups beef stock
2 tablespoons sugar
2 bay leaves
Warm tortillas, shaved cabbage, sour cream, lime wedges and fresh cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the chiles and garlic to a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and steep for 20 to 30 minutes. Pour off half the cooking liquid. Using an immersion blender, puree the peppers, garlic and remaining liquid until smooth. (Alternatively, you can use a regular blender. Be careful when blending hot or warm ingredients.)
  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with the salt, pepper, chile powder and cumin. When the oil is hot, add the meat to the Dutch oven and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes, then remove to a plate.
  • Add the tomato paste and onion to the pot and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the stock, sugar, bay leaves and pepper puree to the pot and stir to combine. Return the beef to the pot and cover. Roast until the meat is fall-apart tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
  • Remove the bay leaves. Shred the meat in the pot and serve on warm tortillas with shaved cabbage, sour cream, lime and cilantro.

Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 large sweet potatoes
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or as needed
2 ½ pounds beef stew meat, cubed
½ cup chopped onion
1 cup beef broth
1 (12 ounce) bottle Mexican guajillo red chile cooking sauce (such as Herdez®)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 green onions, chopped
⅓ cup light sour cream
1 tablespoon butter
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer at a low boil until tender all the way through when pierced with a sharp knife, 40 to 45 minutes.
