Start by trimming excess fat from the beef chuck roast and cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season beef with salt and black pepper.
Brown the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding, searing each side for about 4-5 minutes. Transfer the browned beef to a plate and set aside.
In the same pot, add garlic, onion, and celery. Sauté for about 3 minutes until onion is translucent.
Stir in the carrot and turnip, cooking for another 5 minutes.
Return the beef to the pot, add beef broth, tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
Remove the bay leaf and discard. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the stew hot, garnished with chopped parsley, and enjoy!
