📝 Instructions

12 steps

1. Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes, trimming off excess fat.

2. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper.

3. Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Brown the beef cubes in batches on all sides, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove the beef and set it aside.

4. In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

5. Return the browned beef to the pot. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until well combined.

6. Pour in the beef broth and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze, releasing any stuck-on bits. Add the thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a boil.

7. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.

8. After 60 minutes, add the carrots, celery, potatoes, and green beans to the pot. Simmer for another 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

9. In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and water to form a slurry. Stir the slurry into the stew to thicken it. Let it simmer for an additional 10 minutes.

10. Add the frozen peas and cook for 5 more minutes, just until heated through. Remove the bay leaves.

11. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

12. Serve hot and enjoy your hearty Vegetable Beef Stew!
