Time 16h49m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ½ cups vino seco (white cooking wine)
¼ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
4 pounds beef oxtails
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 cups diced onion
1 cup diced carrots
6 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup green olives, pitted and halved
3 bay leaves
2 teaspoons Miami-style sazon seasoning (sazon completa)
½ (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning (such as Sa-Son Accent®)
½ teaspoon allspice
2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
3 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • Whisk vino seco, 1/4 cup olive oil, and salt together in a large bowl. Add oxtails and mix well to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 12 hours.
  • Drain oxtails, discarding all but 1/2 cup of the marinade.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and sear oxtails until browned on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same pot. Saute potatoes, onion, and carrots until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Mash garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a coarse paste in a mortar and pestle. Add garlic paste to the pot; stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in green olives, bay leaves, sazon completa, sazon seasoning, and allspice. Pour in reserved marinade, tomato sauce, and chicken broth.
  • Return oxtails to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until oxtails are fork tender and falling off the bone, about 4 hours.
