6 servings

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 pound sirloin , cut in strips
2 cups chopped onion
5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 jalapeno peppers, minced
1 14 oz. can plum tomato
1 1/2 cups beef broth
1/2 pound black beans, cooked
3 tablespoons chili powder, or to taste
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup chopped scallions, green & white

In a large stockpot or very large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Saute the sirloin just until no longer pink; do not overcook. Remove the meat with a slotted spoon to a bowl and set aside. Add the onion and garlic to the pot and saute over medium heat until tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in the jalapeno pepper, tomato, broth, beans, spices, and salt and pepper. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover, and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes. Add the sirloin and simmer for 15 minutes; taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve at room temperature, garnished with chopped scallion.
