How to Make Chipotle Carne Guisada Beef Stew Meat Braised W Chipotle

  1. Season 2 lbs beef stew meat generously with 1 tbsp cumin, 1 tsp salt, and ½ tsp black pepper. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet (Dutch oven recommended), heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 large onion (chopped), 1 bell pepper (chopped), and 1 (28 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained.
  3. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until vegetables are softened and translucent.
  4. Add the seasoned beef to the skillet and brown on all sides for 7-10 minutes.
  5. Pour in 2 cups of hot water or beef broth.
  6. Stir in 2 beef bouillon cubes, 1 packet Goya Sazón with achiote (or 1 tbsp chipotle powder + 1 tsp smoked paprika as substitute) and 1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (minced, adjust to taste).
  7. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook on medium-high for 45 minutes, or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Uncover and add 1 more cup of water.
  8. Cover and simmer for another 30 minutes, or until the liquid is almost absorbed.
  9. Uncover, add another 1 cup of water and ½ cup chopped cilantro.
  10. Cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes more, or until the beef is incredibly tender.
  11. Turn off the heat and let the stew stand, covered, for 10-15 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
  12. Serve hot over rice. Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.
