Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs beef chuck roast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 medium onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 3 cups beef broth
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 8 oz mushrooms
- 2 celery stalks
- 2 medium turnips
Instructions
Cut the beef chuck roast into 1.5-inch cubes. Season with salt and black pepper evenly on all sides.
In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottom pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef cubes in batches to avoid overcrowding. Sear the beef on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Chop the onion and garlic. Add to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add beef broth, red wine vinegar, tomato paste, bay leaves, and thyme to the pot. Stir to combine.
Return the seared beef to the pot, ensuring it's submerged in the liquid. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover the pot and let it stew for 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally.
While the beef cooks, slice the mushrooms, chop the celery, and peel and cube the turnips.
After 1.5 hours, add the mushrooms, celery, and turnips to the pot. Stir well and continue cooking, covered, for an additional 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the beef is fork-tender.
Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs before serving. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve hot and enjoy a comforting, Keto-friendly beef stew.
