Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless beef chuck, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 cup bottled chunky medium-hot salsa
1/4 cup canned beef broth
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons (packed) dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add half of beef and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer beef to bowl. Add remaining beef to pot and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes. Return beef in bowl to pot. Add salsa, broth, garlic, sugar and soy sauce to pot; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover pot and simmer stew until beef is tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour 10 minutes.
  • Uncover pot and simmer stew until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Mix in cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Refrigerate until cold; then cover and keep refrigerated. Rewarm before continuing.)
  • Heat tortillas 1 at a time on gas or electric burner, about 10 seconds Per side, turning with tongs. Cover with foil or napkin to keep warm.
