– 1 pound of ground beef
– 1 diced medium onion
– 4 oz green chili or jalapeno, or other pepper.
– 3 finely chopped garlic cloves
– 1 tbsp salt
– 1/2 tsp ground cumin
– 2 bay leaves
– 1/4 cup dry white wine
– 8 ounces of tomato sauce

Brown the ground beef and drain off most of the fat

Sauté onions and green peppers in oil, then sweat the garlic (don’t brown).

Then add the beef back to the pan along with wine, tomato sauce, salt, cumin and bay leaves.

Simmer at a low heat, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes.

Serve over freshly prepared white rice.
