Recipe for Texas red in our easy tex mex recipes collection.

Recipe ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 large onions, coarsely chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 to 2 1/2 pounds lean boneless beef, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 3 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon crushed dried hot peppers
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 2 teaspoons Mexican oregano
  • 1 cup hot water

How to make Texas red

  • In a large Dutch oven heat the oil over medium heat.
  • Add the onions and garlic and saute until very lightly browned.
  • Add the beef cubes in several batches and brown on all sides.
  • When all the beef is browned, add all remaining ingredients except the Masa Harina.
  • Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook over low heat for 3 to 4 hours until the meat is very tender.
  • If too much of the liquid cooks away, add some more hot water during the cooking.
  • Adjust salt and chili powder, adding more to taste if desired.
  • To thicken the chili, mix the Masa Harina with a little cold water, then add this to the chili while it is still simmering.
  • Cook the chili 10 to 15 minutes longer.
  • Serve the chili in bowls with saltines and cooked pinto beans on the side.
