Just eh. This was Okay. Nothing to write home about. It needs a little something to sizzle it up. In hindsight I wish I'd of played up the stew aspect of it more and added carrots turnips parsnips.... you get the idea. I don't understand the point of the chicken broth. First of all it's a BEEF stew. Second of all if you add just water it'll make it's own broth. If you do that you may want to add a little salt though. Pros: Very easy. Cons: Very expensive.
Awesome Dish It says fragrant and it isn't lying! The house smelled so great and the dish is tasty and simple. I tripled the cumin used about four pounds of flank steak a quart of chicken stock and used quite a bit more than just the minuscule 1 teaspoon of salt (more like 2-3 tablespoons kosher salt) and more pepper too. Two bell peppers 2 onions. And served it with lime slices and fresh jalapeno instead of pickled. Lots of changes! It's been feeding all three of us for dinner and a few lunches for the last three days and we still have plenty for another day or two. Pros: Easy low-carb delicious versatile Cons: Needs more vegetables
Crazy Good! Made this exactly as written. A HUGE hit. Beef was juicy tender delicious addictive. Ditto for the broth. Will be putting it into our regular dinner rotation. May experiment with other cuts of meat as the flank steak we used was 27. Yikes! But so worth every outrageously good bite. Pros: Super easy super delicious Cons: Pricey
Very delicious and make lots of left overs! If you are a smaller family or couple definatly cut the recipe in half or prepare to freeze leftovers.
A big thumbs up for flavor here! This has a great flavor a big hit with my "carnivore" but definitely can't be put in the "budget meal" category when flank steak is 6 a lb (more if you go for the locally raised free range beef-which we do when we can). We used skirt steak which worked just fine. I did find that it needed another cup of liquid to cover all the beef in my tall narrowish pot. I suspect a wider style might have been a better choice for this. We made "bowls" with rice beans romaine cheese (think Chipotle restaurant "bowl") for leftovers and it was still great. Pros: flavorful good quantity makes great leftovers Cons: pricey for a stew
Good info Very nice site! Pros: ipuuopru Cons: rtwuipoi
Carlos Campos This stew is my favorite awesome stew and the flavors was fantastic My wife Tell a los beautiful word!!!! Thanks eatingwell.com
I loved this!! I added sliced red potatoes to make it a bit more hearty and served it over couscous. I added the jalepenos and warm corn tortillas on the side and it was yummy. I will make this one again for sure.
Looking forward to making this tomorrow but I only have 1.5 pounds of steak--any suggestions on how that might effect the recipe?
