Steps

70 minutes
  1. 1

    This recipe is made with lamb, but if you can't find it, pork or beef works well too.

  2. 2

    Cut the meat into small pieces and cook it. I use a pressure cooker for speed, with enough water to cover, bay leaves, and salt for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    In a couple of cups of the broth, add the chiles, garlic, onion chunk, cinnamon, and cumin. Cook until the chiles are soft.

  4. 4

    Remove the meat and shred it. Set aside.

  5. 5

    In a pan, sauté the chopped onion with a little oil. When it starts to pop, add the strained sauce. When it boils, add the meat. Let it cook for about 5 minutes. It should remain juicy, not dry.

  6. 6

    Serve in warm tortillas with chopped onion, cilantro, and your preferred salsa.

  7. 7

    Enjoy your meal.
