Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean beef stew meat
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 300 grams potatoes, cubed
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 1 bay leaf
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the beef stew meat, season with salt and pepper, and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove beef from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
Add the minced garlic and smoked paprika, and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato paste, then return the seared beef to the pot.
Pour in the low-sodium beef broth and add the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, add the cubed potatoes and sliced carrots to the pot. Stir well, cover, and simmer for an additional 25-30 minutes until the vegetables and beef are tender.
Taste the stew and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Divide into 4 equal portions. Each serving is approximately 6 Weight Watchers Points.
