Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high until smoking. Working in batches, sear beef cubes 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Transfer to a sheet pan.

  2. Step 2

    Toast guajillo chiles in the same skillet 60 seconds, then soak in 1 cup hot water for 5 minutes until soft.

  3. Step 3

    Blend softened chiles with soaking liquid, broth, and a pinch of salt until completely smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Toss beef with poblano chunks, onion, and chile sauce on the sheet pan. Roast at 425°F for 12–14 minutes until peppers blister.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle with crema and lime juice. Scatter cilantro over top.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot with warm corn tortillas, extra crema, and pickled onions if you have them.
