I got this recipe from my mom. I'm not sure where she got it, but growing up in Miami, I didn't really question it. Its very hearty and filling and the flavor is just so unique! I really like it (hot or cold the next day lol!) (cooking time includes cooking beef if needed and the simmering time)

Time 3h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lbs shredded beef (leftover roast or cooked beef cubes shredded)
4 chorizo sausages, sliced into rounds (the ones I buy are about 8 inches long each - we like a lot - you can always use less)
3/4 cup diced green bell pepper
3/4 cup diced onion
2 tablespoons oil
1 -2 tablespoon cumin, to taste
1 (16 ounce) can tomato sauce
3 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas, undrained (garbanzo beans)
4 medium idaho potatoes, cubed
garlic powder
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • If using beef cubes, boil beef cubes for 1 1/2 hours.
  • Shred beef and save.
  • Saute onions, peppers and chorizo in oil until vegetables are translucent.
  • Add the garbanzo beans with the juice from the can, the tomato sauce, cumin, salt, pepper, garlic powder, potatoes and shredded beef and simmer covered for about an hour and a half- I like the potatoes to be very soft- cook to your preferred doneness.

I would recommend serving this stew with rice or bread. It's also great with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.

I found the stew to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or using a different type of beef.

The stew was a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
