Savory Mushroom and Beef Stew
Ingredients:
- 1 lb beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button mushrooms work well)
- 2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
-
Brown the Beef: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef stew meat in batches, ensuring each piece is browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
-
Sauté Aromatics: In the same pot, add the remaining olive oil. Sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
-
Add Vegetables: Stir in the sliced mushrooms, diced carrots, and celery. Cook for 5-6 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly.
-
Deglaze and Simmer: Stir in the tomato paste, then pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits. Add the dried thyme and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Combine and Cook: Return the browned beef to the pot. Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together.
-
Serve: Once the stew is ready, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
