Carne Guisada con Papas (Meat & Potatoes) image

This wonderful stew has endless variations. Sometimes I add fresh or canned corn. You will notice that the recipe calls for a comparatively small amount of chili powder and cumin; however, keep in mind that this is not chili. You want the allow the flavor of your good beef to prevail and your jalapeos to sing.

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 pounds beef round steaks cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon adobo seasoning (optional, but nice if you have it)
1 large onion chopped
4 cloves minced or press garlic
3 large baked potatoes peeled and cubed
8 ounces tomato sauce
3 cups beef broth
1/2 cup red wine
1/2 cup water
2 fresh, seeded and finely chopped jalapeno chiles
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Steps:

  • Over medium-high heat, brown steak pieces in the oil in a heavy skillet or Dutch oven. (Really brown the meat -- not just let it turn gray). Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until onion is transparent. Add the potatoes, tomato sauce, salt, pepper, adobo, stock, wine and water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for one hour. Stir in the jalapeos, chili powder and cumin, and continue simmering, uncovered, for 1 hour until beef is tender. Makes 4 to 6 servings, depending upon appetites.

This was a great recipe! I used ground beef instead of steak and it turned out great! Thanks for sharing!

I made this recipe last night and it was delicious! The beef was so tender and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
