Sure, here's a recipe for birria tacos:
Ingredients:
For the Birria:
- 3 lb beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into large pieces
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 cups beef broth
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Tacos:
- 12-16 small corn tortillas
- 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Lime wedges, for serving
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Season the beef with salt and black pepper.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large oven-safe Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the beef on all sides in batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, and transfer to a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic to the Dutch oven or skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and cinnamon to the Dutch oven or skillet, and stir to combine.
- Add the beef broth and stir to combine.
- Return the beef to the Dutch oven or skillet and bring to a simmer.
- Cover the Dutch oven or skillet and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender and falls apart easily.
- Remove the Dutch oven or skillet from the oven and let the beef cool for 15-20 minutes.
- Shred the beef with two forks and set aside. Skim off any excess fat from the cooking liquid.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Add a few tortillas at a time and cook for about 30 seconds per side, until they are slightly browned and pliable.
- To assemble the tacos, place a small amount of shredded beef on each tortilla and top with shredded Monterey Jack cheese and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.
Enjoy your delicious birria tacos!
