We’re doing a recipe collaboration with family-owned 804 Cattle Company. Based in Prince George’s County, Maryland, they’re just a stone throw’s away from our backyard. You can check out the first recipe in the collaboration here. For the second recipe, we’re doing a Tomatillo Beef Stir Fry. It’s a great way to use this unique vegetable while still in season. Resembling a green tomato when peeled, but with a look and texture similar to a ground cherry, tomatillos make a great addition to a stir fry. When combined with stir fry beef, you get a tender and juicy dish that you just want to keep eating by the mouthfuls. Give it a try for yourself!
See below for the recipe.
Tomatillo beef stir fry served with a bed of rice. In the background is our Spicy Herb Blend, which added a delicious flavor to the beef.
