Trim any excess fat from the beef chuck roast and cut it into 1-inch cubes.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the beef cubes in batches, searing them until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sautΓ© for about 5 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the beef broth, tomato paste, carrot, celery, bay leaf, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Return the beef cubes to the pot. Stir to combine all ingredients well.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and let it cook for about 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the beef is tender.
About 10 minutes before serving, add the frozen peas to the stew and cook until they're tender.
Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
