Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup canola oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the short ribs with salt and pepper and sear until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to another large pot (set the first pot aside) and add the broth. Cover and cook until tender, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 cup oil in the reserved pot over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, cumin, chili powder, oregano, flour, 1 tablespoon pepper, and salt to taste. Cook, stirring, until the flour is smooth, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside until the meat is done.
• Transfer the short ribs to a cutting board; cover the broth and set aside. Let the meat cool slightly, then cut into chunks. Place the pot with the vegetables over medium-high heat. Slowly add the warm broth and whisk until smooth. Stir in the chopped short ribs and the beans, bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 15 minutes. Ladle into bowls and garnish with guacamole, sour cream, cheese and fried tortilla strips, for a little extra crunch.

Steps:

• FAJITAS: Place steak in 13- by 9-inch glass baking dish. Pour marinade as needed to cover steak. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 4 hours or overnight. Drain meat and slice into thin strips. Cut peppers into thin strips. Heat skillet and add drained meat, red and green bell peppers, onion and enough marinade (1 to 2 tablespoons) to keep mixture from sticking to skillet. Stir-fry just until meat is done as desired. Garnish with cilantro. Serve with rice, if desired, or place about 1/2 cup mixture in center of 1 tortilla. Add any favorite salsa or toppings. STEAK MARINADE: Combine soy sauce, honey, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, ginger and water in bowl. Place in jar with tight-fitting lid and use as needed to marinate steaks, chops or poultry for grilling or making fajitas. (Makes 7 1/2 cups) This recipe yields 4 servings without salsa and rice.
