Alita's Tomato Beef Stew image

Alita tweaked this rich, tomato-based beef stew over the years from her original recipe, which was much less red and contained less vegetables. We're always a little regretful when the pot is empty. Teenagers can wolf it down pretty fast!

BEEF, GREEN CHILI AND TOMATO STEW



Beef, Green Chili and Tomato Stew image

I printed this off of allrecipes.com over 2 years ago,and made it several times, until my husband said he didn't like it THAT much. I wanted it again, so I added the potatoes - then it was great! So the spuds are optional

Provided by HEP MEP

Categories     Stew

Time 3h30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 lbs boneless beef chuck roast, cut into 1 inch cubes
2 onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 -4 red potatoes, cut into cubes
1 (29 ounce) can roma tomatoes, with juice
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies, drained
1 (12 ounce) can beer
1 cup beef broth
2 teaspoons dried oregano, crushed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat until hot.
  • Pat the meat dry with paper towels and brown in batches, transferring the meat to a bowl with a slotted spoon as they are done.
  • In the fat remaining in the pot, cook the onions until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for one more minute.
  • Return meat to the pot with any juices in the bowl and add the potatoes, tomatoes with juice, chilies, beer, beef broth, oregano, cumin and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bring to a boil and reduce heat.
  • Simmer, partially covered, for 2 1/2 hours or until meat is tender.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of your stew. Look for ripe, red tomatoes that are free of blemishes.
  • Brown the beef in batches: This will help to develop a rich, caramelized flavor in the beef. Be sure to not overcrowd the pan, or the beef will steam instead of brown.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, texture, and color to your stew. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: This will help to add flavor and depth to the stew. If you don't have beef broth on hand, you can use chicken broth or vegetable broth.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the stew, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Serve the stew with a side of crusty bread or rice: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Tomato beef stew is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a tomato beef stew that is sure to please everyone at the table.
