CILANTRO BEEF CUBES
Cilantro Beef Cubes get better and better with slow cooking. For maximum flavor, always sear the cubes in a very hot pot or Dutch oven until they are nice and brown before stewing. These beef cubes are extremely flavorful and easy to make. They also allow you to utilize a cheaper cut of meat, typically considered grisly and tough, into something that melts in your mouth. The recipe is very simple to make and uses every day ingredients.
