1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 pounds cubed beef stew meat (preferably chuck)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped, plus more for topping
Cooked white rice, for serving

Time 8h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (4 pound) chuck roast
1 teaspoon salt

Tips:

  • To achieve tender and flavorful round steak, use a slow cooker with a low temperature setting. This allows the meat to cook slowly over an extended period, breaking down the fibers and infusing it with the flavors of the spices and sauce.
  • Choose high-quality ingredients to elevate the dish. Opt for lean round steak, fresh vegetables, and flavorful spices. Freshly ground black pepper and aromatic cumin add depth to the dish.
  • Enhance the taste profile by using a zesty homemade Tex-Mex sauce. This sauce typically includes a combination of tomatoes, chili peppers, garlic, and spices. Adjust the amount of chili peppers based on your desired level of spiciness.
  • Tenderize the meat before cooking for an even more tender result. You can do this by using a meat tenderizer tool or by marinating the steak in a mixture of acidic ingredients like lemon juice or vinegar.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. Ensure there is enough space for the steak and vegetables to cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the sauce.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, this Slow Cooker Tex-Mex Round Steak recipe offers a convenient and delicious way to enjoy a flavorful and tender steak meal. By following these tips and carefully selecting your ingredients, you can create a hearty and satisfying dish that is perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings.
