Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 pounds beef stew meat
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 3 celery stalks, sliced
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
Season the beef stew meat with salt and black pepper. Add the beef to the pot in batches, searing each batch until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch. Remove the meat and set it aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, continuing to cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the carrots, celery, and sweet potatoes to the pot, stirring to combine with the onions and garlic.
Pour the crushed tomatoes and beef broth into the pot. Stir to combine.
Return the seared beef to the pot along with the bay leaves and fresh thyme.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
Remove the bay leaves and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
