Carne en Su Jugo is a cozy, comforting dish that's bursting with flavor, making it a perfect choice for tonight's dinner!
Start by dicing the bacon into small pieces. In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. This should take about 5 to 7 minutes.
Once the bacon is cooked, remove it using a slotted spoon, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
Next, cut the beef into small cubes and season with salt and black pepper.
In the same pot, add the beef to the remaining bacon fat and sear on all sides for about 10 minutes. You want to have a nice brown color on the beef.
While the beef is cooking, chop the onion and mince the garlic. Once the beef has browned, add the onion and garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced tomatoes and cilantro to the pot along with the beef broth. Bring this mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for about 30 minutes. This will allow all the flavors to meld together beautifully.
After 30 minutes, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add more salt or pepper according to your preference.
Before serving, squeeze in the juice of one lime and stir well.
Serve hot, garnished with crispy bacon, chopped green onions, and cilantro, with lime wedges on the side.
