For those of you who do not subscribe to Saveur magazine there was recently
a section on authentic Mexican food. (No yellow cheese, a dribble of sour
cream, very little lettuce, ...etc.). One of the recipes Carne Picada
Burritos ( or Steak Ranchero ) was a featured item, to those of you who
like Texan-fajitas this is the forerunner and IMHO the easiest and best.
:^)

Heat 2 tbsp. oil in pan and add onions then cook till translucent for about
ten minutes, add jalapenos, turn heat to high then add meat and brown for 2
minutes. Now add garlic and tomatoes and let simmer for a few minutes and
serve as gravy begins to from, place in hot flour tortillas... Simple,
Wonderful, Traditional.
