Method

Prepare Beef Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Sear the Short Ribs

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef short ribs with salt, black pepper, chile powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Sear the ribs for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.

  2. 2

    Add Liquid Ingredients

    Once the ribs are browned, add the beef broth, canned diced tomatoes, and chipotle peppers in adobo sauce to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Braise the Ribs

    Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Allow the short ribs to braise for 2-3 hours until they are tender and falling off the bone.

Prepare Cabbage-Jicama Slaw

  1. 4

    Combine Slaw Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, julienned jicama, and shredded carrot.

  2. 5

    Dress the Slaw

    In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, and salt. Pour the dressing over the slaw and toss to combine. Finish by adding the chopped cilantro.

Assemble Tacos

  1. 6

    Warm Corn Tortillas

    In a skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.

  2. 7

    Fill Tacos

    For each tortilla, add a generous portion of the braised short ribs and top with the cabbage-jicama slaw and sliced goat horn peppers.
