1. Remove beef pot roast from package; set aside. Measure ¾
cup of the gravy and place in large skillet; discard any remaining gravy or
reserve for other use.
2. Add chili beans, corn, salsa, 1 tablespoon chopped oregano
and cinnamon to gravy in skillet; bring to a boil.
3. Meanwhile cut pot roast into ¼-inch thick slices. Add to
skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until
beef is heated through, stirring occasionally. Serve pot roast with sauce.
Garnish with chopped oregano and oregano sprigs, if desired.
Cook's Tip: If chili beans
with chipotle peppers are not available, add ½ to 1 teaspoon minced chipotle
peppers in adobo sauce to regular chili beans. If chipotle thick-and-chunky
salsa is not available, add ½ to 1 teaspoon minced chipotle peppers in adobo
sauce to regular thick-and-chunky salsa.
Chipotle chiles in adobo sauce are dried smoked jalapeno
peppers packed in a red piquant sauce made from dried chiles, herbs and
vinegar. Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce can be found in the ethnic food
section of large supermarkets.
Note: The amount of gravy
in fully-cooked pot roast products varies. If your package does not contain ¾
cup, make up the difference with beef broth or water.
