5 Ingredient Mexican Shredded Beef And Beef Tostadas Recipes

SHREDDED BEEF TOSTADAS

Steps:

• Prepare spice rub: Combine chili powder, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, coriander, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
• Rub 1 tablespoon of the spice rub on each side of the chuck roast. Set remaining spice rub aside for later.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place seasoned roast in the hot oil and brown for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
• Cook onions in the same skillet, stirring frequently, until they begin to turn clear, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in beef stock, 1/2 cup chopped tomato, orange juice, lime juice, and remaining spice rub.
• Return the roast back to the skillet and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer gently until meat is tender and cooked through, about 2 hours. Remove meat from the skillet and transfer to a cutting board.
• Carefully pour the skillet contents into a blender or food processor. Pulse several times, until sauce is smooth.
• Remove the visible fat from the meat and discard. Shred the meat with two forks. Place shredded beef back into the skillet with about 3/4 cup of the pureed tomato sauce. Add more, if desired, to adjust the consistency. Refrigerate any unused tomato sauce in a sealed container for another use, if desired.
• To assemble tostadas, spread about 1/3 cup refried beans on each tostada shell. Top with layers of shredded beef mixture, lettuce, Cheddar cheese, and reserved chopped tomatoes. Drizzle with salsa and add a dollop of sour cream and guacamole. Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.

5 INGREDIENT MEXICAN SHREDDED BEEF AND BEEF TOSTADAS

Steps:

• Pat beef chuck roast dry with a paper towel and place in a crock pot.
• Sprinkle taco seasoning on top of the beef and rub it into the beef with your fingers, kind of like massaging it in.
• Add in the jalapeno (if you want it more spicy leave in the seeds, if you like it less spicy seed the jalapeno before putting it in.) and then pour cola over the meat - you want it about just to the top of the beef.
• Squeeze in lime juice and turn the heat on low and cook for 6 hours (alternatively you could cook it on high for 3 hours).
• After 6 hours remove the beef and with two forks shred the beef and enjoy!
• For the tostadas simply pile on shredded beef, lettuce, guacamole, sour cream and shredded cheese.
