Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef chuck roast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large white onion
- 4 cloves garlic cloves
- 3 large carrots
- 3 stalks celery stalks
- 2 medium russet potatoes
- 4 cups beef broth
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 leaves bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Cut the beef chuck roast into 1.5-inch cubes and season with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides, which should take about 6-8 minutes.
Remove the beef from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add minced garlic cloves and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
Slice the carrots into rounds, chop the celery, and cube the potatoes. Add these vegetables to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce, stirring well to combine.
Add the dried thyme, bay leaves, and sprinkle in the salt and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors meld together.
Remove the bay leaves from the pot and discard.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish the hot pot with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot in bowls, optionally alongside crusty bread or steamed rice.
