Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs chuck roast
  • 4 guajillo peppers
  • 2 medium yellow onions (1 for cooking, 1 for garnish)
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup cilantro (for garnish)
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Corn tortillas

Instructions

  1. Cut the chuck roast into large chunks and season with salt and pepper. In a large pot over medium heat, sear each piece until browned on all sides (about 4-5 minutes).
  2. Remove stems and seeds from guajillo peppers and soak them in hot water for about 15 minutes.
  3. Blend soaked guajillo peppers, one onion, garlic, lime juice, and some beef broth until smooth to create the sauce.
  4. Add the seared meat back into the pot with the blended sauce and remaining beef broth. Bring to a gentle boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2-3 hours until meat is tender enough to shred.
  5. Shred the cooked meat using two forks and return it to the pot with broth.
  6. Warm corn tortillas on a skillet until pliable. Fill each tortilla with shredded meat mixture and garnish with chopped onions and cilantro before serving.
