Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Beef chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 large Yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 cups Beef broth, gluten-free
  • 1 15-ounce can Diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 2 tablespoons Chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • 12 Gluten-free corn tortillas
  • 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 Lime wedges
  • 1 large Avocado, sliced
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream, optional

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef chuck roast and sear on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

Step 2

In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Step 3

In a slow cooker, combine the beef, sautéed onions, and garlic. Pour in the gluten-free beef broth and add the diced tomatoes with green chilies.

Step 4

Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, and bay leaves. Cover and cook on low heat for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the beef is tender and easily shredded.

Step 5

Once cooked, remove the bay leaves and use two forks to shred the beef inside the slow cooker, mixing well with the juices.

Step 6

Warm the gluten-free corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side or until pliable.

Step 7

To assemble the tacos, place a generous amount of shredded beef onto each tortilla.

Step 8

Top with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, sliced avocado, and a dollop of optional sour cream.

Step 9

Serve immediately, and enjoy the delicious gluten-free shredded beef tacos!
