Categories     Main Dish     Stew

Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 pounds beef chuck (, cut into 1-inch pieces)
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 large yellow onion (, cut into 1-inch pieces)
3 cloves garlic minced
1 cup dry red wine
4 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons tomato paste
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 large carrots (cut into 1-inch pieces)
2 large celery ribs (cut into 1-inch pieces)
2-3 medium potatoes (cut into 1-inch pieces)
6 ounces button mushrooms (halved or quartered (depending on size))
1 cup frozen peas ((can substitute canned but not as vibrant in color))
Chopped fresh parsley for garnishing

Steps:

  • *See the pictured tutorial for more info on the tips to creating the best beef stew.
  • Sprinkle the beef chunks with the salt and pepper. Sprinkle the flour over the beef to coat all sides.
  • Heat the oil and butter in a large Dutch oven or heavy stock pot until hot (when you sprinkle in a few drops of water they should jump and sizzle). Add the coated beef chunks, spacing them out about 1/2 inch from each other and, working in batches so as not to overcrowd, generously brown the beef on all sides. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the onions with another tablespoon of butter to the Dutch oven (do not remove the browned/blackened bits in the bottom of the pan) and cook until soft and translucent, 5-7 minutes (add a little more oil or butter if necessary). Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Add the wine, bring it to a rapid boil, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and boil for 2 minutes or until the wine is mostly evaporated. Return the beef to the Dutch oven.
  • Add the broth, tomato paste and seasonings. Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 90 minutes.
  • Add the vegetables, cover and cook for another hour. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve hot sprinkled with a little chopped fresh parsley.
