Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes. Pat them dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. In batches, brown the beef on all sides, removing each batch to a plate once browned.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook for another 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms start to soften.
Return the browned beef to the pot, along with the cubed potatoes, gluten-free beef broth, tomato paste, and gluten-free Worcestershire sauce.
Stir to combine, then add in the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together.
Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the stew to thicken it and cook for another 5 minutes.
Discard the bay leaf and thyme sprigs before serving.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed, then serve hot.
