Cut the beef chuck roast into bite-sized cubes, trimming away any excess fat.
In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding, browning on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced red and green bell peppers and sliced carrots to the pot. Sauté for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the minced garlic and continue to cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the tomato paste to the vegetables, and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Return the beef to the pot, along with the beef broth, paprika, sea salt, black pepper, and bay leaves. Stir well to combine.
Bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the beef is tender and the flavors are well melded.
Remove the bay leaves and taste the soup, adjusting seasoning if necessary.
Garnish each serving with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Enjoy your hearty Paleo Hungarian Goulash Soup on its own or with a side of your favorite Paleo bread.
