What's for dinner?




Tonight for dinner I'm making Carne Guisada.  Carne Guisada means "meat in gravy."  Whenever we go out for Mexican, this is what Marty orders.  I found the recipe on allrecipes.com - but it says it's a Puerto Rican dish. Not sure if that's just this particular recipe or what.  I'll have to do a little research on where Carne Guisada originated.  Wherever it did - this is dinner tonight.  Also gonna throw in some homemade torts and canned refried beans topped w/ monteray jack cheese.  (I can make them homemade but didn't think to soak the beans overnight)

Here's the recipe for those who are interested:

Carne Guisada III (Found on Allrecipes.com/submitted by fivebrigs)
Serves 4 (I doubled the recipe)


Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) can canned tomato sauce
  • 1/4 cup sofrito sauce (found in the Mexican food section at Kroger)
  • 1 (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning (Mexican food section at Kroger)
  • 1 tablespoon adobo seasoning (yellowish bottle w/ blue top found in spices and in Mexican)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • salt to taste
  • 2 pounds beef stew meat
  • 2 cups peeled, cubed potatoes
  • 1 cup water

Directions

  1. In a large pot, combine tomato sauce, sofrito sauce, sazon seasoning, adobo seasoning, oregano, and salt. Simmer over medium low heat for 5 minutes. Add meat, and cook until evenly browned. Stir in just enough water to cover meat. Cover, and simmer for about 1 hour. Add potatoes, and cook for about 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
