Steps

45-50 min
  1. 1

    First, tenderize the beef in a pot—ideally a pressure cooker—for about 30 minutes or until very tender and easy to shred. Add enough water to cover the beef by about 1 inch (2-3 fingers above the meat) and season with salt.

  2. 2

    After 30 minutes, check if the beef is ready by inserting a fork. If the fork goes in easily, the meat is done.

  3. 3

    Drain and place the beef in a bowl to cool. You can save the broth for other dishes.

  4. 4

    Once cooled, use two forks to shred the beef well. Set aside.

  5. 5

    For the sauce, finely dice the onions and green bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves. Sauté everything in a hot skillet with just 1 teaspoon of oil for 30 seconds.

  6. 6

    Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet: cumin, oregano, red wine, white wine, and tomato puree. Stir until everything is well combined, about 30 seconds.

  7. 7

    Finally, add the shredded beef and mix well to coat with the sauce. Cook over medium heat for a few more seconds and adjust salt to taste.

  8. 8

    Done! Serve and enjoy!
