Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef steak (e.g., chuck or round steak)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 0.5 cups red wine (optional)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 medium potatoes, cubed
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Season the steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper. Lightly dredge the steaks in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the steaks and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze the pan by adding the beef broth and red wine (if using). Stir to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme. Mix well until the sauce is smooth and combined.
Return the steaks to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Add the sliced carrots and cubed potatoes around the steaks.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Allow the steaks to simmer for 60-75 minutes, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
Check occasionally to ensure the liquid hasn’t reduced too much; add a bit of broth or water if needed.
Once done, taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if necessary.
Serve the steaks and vegetables hot, topped with the fresh parsley for garnish. Pair with crusty bread or steamed rice for a complete meal.
