3 ½ lb. beef chuck or pot roast
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/3 cup olive oil
1 cup water
1 large yellow onion, peeled and sliced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1 green pepper, cored, seeded, and chopped
1 cup tomato sauce
1 tsp. salt
1 bay leaf
½ cup dry wine
Oregano, cumin, coriander, whole chiles (dried or fresh) to taste.
Rub salt and pepper into the meat, brown in a bit of the olive oil. Add everything else, cover and simmer until well done which will take a couple of hours, then shred the meat and stir it back into the pan juices. Serve in tortillas, if you wish.
