Barbacoa-style Beef & Rice

Barbacoa means ‘barbeque’ in Spanish, but it’s not as straightforward as that, Chef! Imagine the best braised beef you’ve tasted – with a Mexican barbeque flavour twist. Our recipe replaces tacos with a bed of fluffy jasmine rice. The beef is cooked in a beautiful blend of orange juice, a special UCOOK spice blend, tomato passata, a rich beef stock & garlic, which is soaked up by sweet corn & black beans.

  1. RICE

    Place the rice in a pot with 200ml [400ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

  2. Beef

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the schnitzel dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the schnitzel until browned, 20-30 seconds per side. In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan. Cut into bite-sized pieces, season and set aside.

  3. SAUCE

    Return the pan to medium heat with all the pan juices. Fry the spring onion, Corn, garlic, and spice blend until fragrant, 3-4 minutes. Mix in the tomato passata, orange juice, Beef stock and 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of water. Simmer until thickening, 6-8 minutes. In the final 2-3 minutes, add the beans and the beef and continue to simmer until warmed through. Remove from the heat and season.
