Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 pound Beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 large Yellow onion, diced
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 medium Carrot, sliced
- 2 Celery stalks, sliced
- 6 cups Beef broth
- 1 15-ounce can Canned diced tomatoes
- 1 cup Dried black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
- 1 Bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the beef and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, cooking for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots and celery to the pot. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the browned beef to the pot with the vegetables.
Pour in the beef broth and diced tomatoes (including the juices).
Add the rinsed black-eyed peas, bay leaf, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, until the beef is tender and the black-eyed peas are cooked through.
Remove the bay leaf and taste the soup, adjusting the seasoning if needed.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
