DK'S CARNE GUISADA



Dk's Carne Guisada image

This is one of my favorite Mexican dishes. This recipe is from a small town church cookbook I received as a wedding present 26 years ago. Posted here for safekeeping. Recipe is credited to Laverne McKoy. You'll find this dish goes together quickly and is very simple. I've made it in a crock pot, on the stove or in the oven. Just adjust the cooking times for your situation. The traditional way to serve this is as a stew with warm flour tortillas on the side. We usually spoon it into the tortilla and eat as a taco with cheese and sour cream.

Carne guisada, a hearty beef stew packed with Caribbean flavors, is my absolute favorite Puerto Rican meal. There's always something comforting about this meal that makes me feel close to home, and especially close to my family. I make this dish every week for my children, but when I do I eat it all day too.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds chuck roast or other beef stew meat, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (see Cook's Note)
1/2 cup adobo
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup tomato paste
1 cup thick-cut carrot rounds (1 to 2 large carrot)
1 cup peeled and diced potatoes (1 medium potato)
1/4 cup sofrito with recao (culantro)
2 tablespoons sazón con achiote (5 packets)
10 pimento-stuffed olives
3 dried bay leaves
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the beef in a medium bowl, sprinkle with the adobo, toss to coat and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, stirring frequently, until seared and mostly browned on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes.

CARNE GUISADA



Carne Guisada image

Muy Bueno! Seasoned perfectly, this Carne guisada is very, very good. The combination of fresh vegetables and cumin is fabulous. Once cooked, the meat is tender with a sauce that gets thickened at the end. This stew is simple to prepare but does take time to cook down. Don't rush it... The key to this recipe is low and slow....

SOUTH TEXAS CARNE GUISADA

In this recipe, chunks of lean beef are simmered with fresh tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, garlic, and Mexican seasonings to make a rich spicy gravy (guisada). Serve with warm tortillas and garnish with guacamole, sour cream, and/or cheddar cheese for awesome guisada tacos. If your gravy is too thin, whisk a 1/2 cup of the gravy with 1 tablespoon of flour and stir it back into the meat mixture; cook until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
