  1. Prepare green beans: Trim the tips of the green beans and cut them into three parts. Boil them in salted water until cooked. Drain and set aside.
  2. Prepare sauce ingredients: Wash the chile güero, habanero chili, tomato, onion, and garlic. Roast them until nicely cooked.
  3. Sweat and peel chilies: Place the roasted chilies in a bag to sweat, then peel off the skins and remove the seeds.
  4. Brown the meat: Heat oil in a pot. Season the chopped beef with ground black pepper and salt. Brown the meat in the hot oil.
  5. Add green beans to meat: Before the meat dries, add the cooked green beans to the pot and cook together for a while.
  6. Prepare the sauce: Grind the roasted tomato, onion, garlic, habanero chili, and peeled chile güero with some salt until very fine.
  7. Cook stew: Add the ground sauce to the meat and green beans. Add a little water to rinse the glass and pour into the pot. Let the stew boil and then simmer until fully cooked and flavors meld.
  8. Serve: Serve the stew warm with rice and warm tortillas. Optionally accompany with chopped onion and warm gorditas.
