Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

Servings: Serves 4-6  Serving size 1-1/2 cups.

Ingredients:

• 2 poblano chiles (lg)
• 1-1/2 lb of lean ground sirloin
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 tsp of cumin
• 1 tsp of smoked paprika
• Salt to taste
• 2 large tomatoes, chopped
• 2 Tbl of minced cilantro
• 3 cups of beef broth (organic)

Instructions:

To start off set your oven at 400 degrees. Cut your poblanos in to ¼” strips. You need to remove the white ribs and the seeds first. Put them on a very lightly sprayed cookie sheet. Roast them until they begin to shrivel and brown on the edges. This is about 15 minutes.

While that’s going on, lightly spray a small soup pot (or large sauce pan).  Put in the ground sirloin and onion. Break up the sirloin and while the sirloin is browning continually break it up into bite-sized chunks.  Add the cumin and paprika during this process. Make sure the beef is completely browned. Then add salt to taste. A half tsp of grated sea salt should do it.

Add your tomatoes, cilantro and beef broth. Heat this until hot and then add in the roasted poblanos. Stir and heat for 15 minutes mo

You are ready to serve.

Have a bottle of hot sauce on the side if anyone wants theirs with more heat. This is intentionally very mild for those that don’t usually eat Mexican food.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
