Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 cups diced tomatoes
- 2 cups carrots, sliced
- 2 cups celery, sliced
- 2 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the beef stew meat, flour, salt, and black pepper, and toss to coat the meat evenly.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the coated beef stew meat and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in the beef broth and diced tomatoes, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Add the sliced carrots, celery, potatoes, mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and bay leaf to the pot. Stir to combine, cover, and continue to simmer for an additional 45 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the meat is cooked through.
- Discard the bay leaf before serving. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
- Serve the beef and vegetable stew hot, and enjoy!
