Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 pounds beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 medium white onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 green bell pepper, sliced
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
Mexican Rice (page 124), for serving
Refried Beans (page 130), for serving
Aunt Edna's Homemade Flour Tortillas (page 171), warm for serving

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the meat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned in spots but still a little red in the middle, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper and stir to combine. Add the cumin, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Stir in the tomato sauce and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with Mexican rice, refried beans, and warm tortillas.
  • From Aunt Elsa's Kitchen
  • For a thicker gravy, after cooking use a slotted spoon to transfer the meat and vegetables to a serving bowl. Combine 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour with 1/4 cup water and stir until smooth. Whisk this slurry into the gravy and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes until thickened. Pour the gravy over the meat and serve.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. It's the perfect comfort food for a cold night. I usually serve it over rice, but it's also great with tortillas or bread.
