    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the beef into large chunks. Place in a pot with cold water, onion, garlic cloves, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Simmer over low heat for 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.

    2

    Meanwhile, prepare the chile de árbol sauce: in a skillet, toast the chiles and tomatoes until slightly charred.

    3

    Transfer the toasted chiles and tomatoes to a blender. Add one clove of garlic, a pinch of salt, and a little water. Blend until smooth.

    4

    Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and shred it using two forks.

    5

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet until pliable.

    6

    Fill the tortillas with the shredded beef, then spoon over the chile de árbol sauce.

    7

    Garnish with fresh cilantro, squeeze lime juice over the top, and serve immediately!
