Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 2 medium, sliced carrot
- 2 sliced celery stalks
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 1 medium, diced zucchini
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 14.5 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots to the pot and sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Stir in the red bell pepper, zucchini, and minced garlic and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
Add the ground beef to the pot. Cook, stirring often, until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
Mix in the crushed tomatoes and beef broth, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pot.
Season the stew with oregano, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer gently for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the bay leaf from the stew, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
