Beef Stew - Frugal Gourmet Style image

This recipe comes to you by way of the Frugal Gourmet, a fellow TV chef that passed away in 2004 amidst a cloud of controversy. He was instrumental in my first glimpses of cooking on TV before there ever was a food or cooking channel and his wit and fun in the kitchen certainly made for creative recipes. I believe he helped...

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb beef chuck roast, cubed (stew meat)
1 large carrot, peeld and sliced
3 large celery stalks, cleaned and sliced
1 large sweet onion, peeled and sliced
4 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh grd black pepper
1 tsp minced fresh thyme
1 large bay leaf
3 c zinfandel (i prefer red, but blush will work in a pinch)
4 Tbsp grapeseed oil
2 Tbsp tomato paste, no salt added

Steps:

  • 1. Place everything, except Grapeseed oil and tomato paste into a Tupperware marinade container. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours, mix around every few hours to make sure everything is evenly coated.
  • 2. Remove the meat from the marinade and save everything. Heat a metallic skillet over medium high heat; don't use a non-stick skillet unless that's all you have. Add in the oil and toss in a small amount of meat, making sure not to crowd the pan to allow even browning. Continue in this fashion until all the meat is cooked; remove from the pan and place into a large glass casserole dish. Add the vegetables and wine, stir in tomato paste until blended, then bring to a boil and gradually pour over browned meat. Place into a preheated 350 degree oven, covered for approximately 2 hours or until meat is fork tender.
  • 3. Remove from the oven and ladle over fresh cooked al dente egg noodles or hot from the oven buttermilk biscuits.
