This hearty Carne de Res con Frijoles is a comforting, soul-satisfying dish that showcases the rich flavors of Mexican cuisine. Perfect for family gatherings or a cozy dinner at home!
Start by dicing your onion and mincing the garlic clove.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat for about 2 minutes.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is soft and translucent.
Cut the beef into bite-sized cubes and add it to the skillet, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides.
Stir in 2 cups of beans, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix well.
Add enough water to just cover the mixture and bring it to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
Once done, give it a taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Before serving, chop a few stalks of cilantro and sprinkle on top for freshness, along with a squeeze of lime juice.
