Steps

  1. ### Big Bens Beef Machaca: A Flavorful Mexican Breakfast Delicacy
  2. Big Bens Beef Machaca is a traditional Mexican breakfast dish that combines tender shredded beef with spices to create a savory, comforting meal. Here’s how you can make this delicious recipe at home:
  3. #### Ingredients:
  4. - 1 lb (450g) ground beef
  5. - 1 small onion, finely chopped
  6. - 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  7. - 1 green bell pepper, diced
  8. - 1 red bell pepper, diced
  9. - Salt and pepper to taste
  10. - 1/2 tsp cumin
  11. - 1/4 tsp chili powder
  12. - 1/4 tsp paprika (optional)
  13. - 1 tsp oregano leaves
  14. - Vegetable oil for frying
  15. #### Equipment:
  16. - Large skillet or pan
  17. - Mixing bowl
  18. - Spoon or spatula
  19. - Measuring spoons
  20. ### Step-by-Step Guide:
  21. #### Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
  22. Start by chopping your onion, mincing the garlic, and dicing both bell peppers. This step ensures that all ingredients are ready to go as you cook.
  23. #### Step 2: Season the Beef
  24. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder (if using), paprika (optional), and oregano. Mix well until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat. This step ensures that your machaca will be perfectly seasoned.
  25. #### Step 3: Cook the Vegetables
  26. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Once hot, add the chopped onion and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until translucent. Next, add the minced garlic and cook for another minute or so, stirring frequently.
  27. #### Step 4: Add Bell Peppers
  28. Add the diced bell peppers to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until they are softened but still retain a bit of crunch.
  29. #### Step 5: Brown the Beef
  30. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the seasoned beef to the pan. Use a spoon or spatula to break up any large clumps as it cooks, ensuring even browning. Cook for about 8-10 minutes until the beef is well-browned and cooked through.
  31. #### Step 6: Combine and Serve
  32. Stir the cooked vegetables into the beef to combine. Let everything cook together for another minute or two to ensure flavors meld well. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then transfer the beef machaca to a serving platter.
  33. ### Serving Suggestions:
  34. - Serve hot with warm tortillas.
  35. - Add a dollop of sour cream on top.
  36. - Garnish with sliced avocado and fresh cilantro leaves.
  37. - Enjoy it with a side of refried beans or scrambled eggs for a complete breakfast spread.
  38. #### SEO Tips:
  39. - Use keywords such as "Big Bens Beef Machaca," "Mexican Breakfast Recipe," and "Shredded Beef."
  40. - Include meta descriptions to summarize the recipe and its key ingredients.
  41. - Add alt text to images if you're including visuals, using phrases like "shredded beef with spices" or "traditional Mexican breakfast."
