Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 14-ounce can canned diced tomatoes
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 large avocado
  • 1 medium lime
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 8 large romaine lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Start by seasoning the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the beef to a slow cooker.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add diced onion and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the beef broth and canned diced tomatoes, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet. Add cumin, chili powder, paprika, and oregano. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Pour the mixture over the beef in the slow cooker.

Step 6

Cover and cook on low for 7 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred using two forks.

Step 8

Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and mix it well with the juices.

Step 9

Prepare the toppings by slicing the avocado and cutting the lime into wedges.

Step 10

For serving, lay out romaine lettuce leaves. Distribute the shredded beef evenly among them.

Step 11

Top each 'taco' with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Shredded Beef Tacos!
