Beef and Chipotle Burritos
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds  boneless beef round steak, cut 3/4 inch thick
  • 1 14 1/2ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1/3 cup  chopped onion (1 small)
  • 1 - 2 canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped (see tip, page XX)
  • 1 teaspoon  dried oregano, crushed
  • 1/4 teaspoon  ground cumin
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 6 9 - 10 inches  tomato-flavored or plain flour tortillas, warmed
  • 3/4 cup  shredded sharp cheddar cheese (3 ounces)
  • 1 Pico de Gallo Salsa
  • Shredded jicama or radishes (optional)
  • Dairy sour cream (optional)

1. Trim fat from meat. Cut meat into 6 pieces. In a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker place meat, undrained tomatoes, onion, chipotle peppers, oregano, cumin, and garlic.

2. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours. Remove meat from cooker. Using 2 forks, pull meat apart into shreds. Place meat in a large bowl. Stir in enough cooking liquid to reach desired consistency. Divide meat among warm tortillas, spooning it just below the centers. Top with cheese, Pico de Gallo Salsa, and, if desired, jicama and sour cream. Roll up tortillas. Makes 6 servings.
