Ingredients
2 1/2lbs cubed stew beef (most stores already have it cut up as such)
1 onion (large dice)
1 green bell pepper (large dice)
3 medium sized potatoes (peeled & roughly chopped)
1 1/2 cups baby carrots
1/3 cup chopped green onion
3 tblspn minced garlic
2/3 cup ketchup (tomato sauce would work fine also)
1/3 cup brown sugar
juice of 2 limes
2 1/2 tblspn browning liquid
Seasonings (jerk seasoning, ginger, allspice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, thymed)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups of water
First things first, lets season your meat. I seasoned mine w/ about 2 tablespoons of the jerk seasoning, the lime juice & the browning liquid (I used this brand).
Mix well & set aside.
While the meat marinates for a little while, prep all of your veggies
Heat the oil over medium high heat for about 5 minutes. Brown your meat for about 10 minutes (not fully cook) & then remove from the pan
add all the vegetables & garlic to the same pan and sautee for about 15-20 minutes and season generously w/ all the seasonings mentioned above according to taste (except the jerk seasoning)
next, add the meat back to the pan & mix in the ketchup along w/ the brown sugar and water
Reduce heat to a low boil & let cook down & reduce for at least an hour. Taste a sample to make sure it's seasoned correctly & adjust according to taste. This is what the finished product should resemble
ENJOY!!!!!
