Introduction
An authentic and classic Mexican Red Chili Beef Stew made with tender beef chuck roast simmered in a rich, flavorful red sauce crafted from dried New Mexico chile pods and traditional spices.
Step 1
In a pot, place 10 cleaned New Mexico chile pods and 1/4 onion. Cover with water, set to high heat, and bring to a boil.
Step 2
Once boiled, turn off the heat and transfer the chiles and onion into a blender cup.
Step 3
To the blender cup, add 3 garlic cloves, 1 tbsp beef bouillon, 2 tsp ground cumin, 2 1/2 tsp oregano, and 3 1/2 cups of water. Blend until completely smooth to create the red chile sauce.
Step 4
Season the cubed beef chuck roast with 4 tsp of salt and 1 tbsp of black pepper, mixing well to distribute the seasoning.
Step 5
Add 4 tbsp of all-purpose flour to the seasoned beef and toss thoroughly until every piece of meat is nicely coated.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
New Mexico chile pods can be slightly spicy. If you prefer a milder sauce, you can substitute them with Guajillo chile pods.
Be sure to sear the meat in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which would steam the meat instead of searing it.
Skim any excess oil off the top of the stew before serving for a cleaner finish.
