SHREDDED BEEF & ALE CHILLI "MEXICAN TINGA"



Shredded Beef & Ale Chilli

Mexican shredded beef or tinga is a versatile dish, great as a filling for soft tortillas, enchiladas, burritos or crusty rolls. This simple version relies on a few key flavours so even though the cut of beef used is inexpensive, it pays to use the best-quality beef you can.

Time 3h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons olive oil
7 large chilies
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1 1/4 kg blade steaks, trimmed of fat and cut into 2cm chunks
1 1/3 liters pale ale beer
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 cup coriander (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan over a medium-low heat. Cut the green stalk ends from 5 chillies (reserve 2 chillies for garnish). Place the whole chillies and garlic in the saucepan and cook gently for 5 minutes.
  • Raise the heat to medium-high, add the steak and cook, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes or until all the liquid from the meat is evaporated and the meat is browned. Add the ale and bring to the boil. Lower the heat to a slow simmer, cover and then continue cooking for 11/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook for a extra hour until the meat is tender enough to break up easily with a wooden spoon and you are left with a thick shredded beef mixture (don't allow it to boil dry). Season with salt to taste.
  • Cut reserved chillies into fine julienne and scatter with the coriander over the beef. This serves 8 with the frijoles con queso (bean and cheese stew), or 4-6 on its own.

SLOW COOKER BEEF TINGA

I love this spin-off on Mexican chili. Serve with warm flour tortillas, or eat in a bowl like chili, topped with fresh slices of jalapenos. Or spoon it over a warm corn tostada and garnish like a taco.

BEEF TINGA



beef tinga image

The beef tinga recipes are mainly associated to the State of Sinaloa in northern Mexico, and this modern and easy method derives from the way they traditionally prepared the meat in this area, in meso-american times. Also, this dish is closely related to Machaca meat. You can order the famous "Falda" cut, known to us as the skirt steak beef cut at the meat department of supermarkets or at any butcher; this cut is much appreciated in Mexico and used in many mexican recipes. The chipotle chiles in adobo have become your best friend by now; you can find at any latin market.

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 5

1.5 lb. Beef, Flank cut
3 onions
1 can (5 oz.) tomato paste
1 can chipotle chiles in adobo
3 sprigs cilantro

Steps:

  • Making this mexican recipe now:1) Pour 12 cups of water in a pot, put the meat in, split the first onion in four and put it in as well, along with the minced garlic, cilantro and salt to taste. Bake for 40 minutes or until your meat is tender and can be easily shredded.
  • Remove meat from broth and shred it as thin as you prefer.
  • Pour 4 tablespoons oil a skillet and bring to heat; add the onions previously cut into half rings.
  • Mix constantly until the onion becomes soft, add the tomato paste, 4 cups of the broth from which beef had cooked in step 1.
  • Season with salt, chopped chipotles and the adobo from the can, in quantities to your taste; if you use the whole chipotle can this will be very hot...
  • Heat up until the sauce starts to boil, then mix in the shredded meat and simmer for 3-4 more minutes; typically a tinga should be thick and not liquid. If the tinga feels too dry add a little more broth.
  • When serving the tinga, you can accompany it with mexican rice or serve in tacos with sliced avocados.
