Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds top sirloin steak, diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 medium sweet onion, diced
2 large carrots, peeled and diced
2 celery ribs, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, halved
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup dry red wine
2 1/2 cups beef stock
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
1 large russet potato, peeled and cut in 1/2-inch chunks
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Season steak with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Working in batches, add steak to the stockpot and cook, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 6-8 minutes; set aside. Add onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned, about 3-4 minutes. Whisk in flour and tomato paste until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the stockpot. Stir in beef stock, thyme, bay leaves and steak. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until beef is very tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in potato; simmer until potatoes are just tender and stew has thickened, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard thyme sprigs and bay leaves. Stir in parsley; season with salt and pepper, to taste.* Serve immediately.

DONNA'S BEST BEEF STEW



Donna's Best Beef Stew image

I've been making this beef stew for many years now and my husband loves to take it to work and I never get any of it! Simmer in a Dutch Oven for 1-1/2 hrs then add vegetables till tender. This recipe is also suitable for a crock pot just don't add more than 3/4 full of the ingredients! NOTE: Never tell them you found this...

Categories     Beef

Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lb beef stew meat, cubed to bite size
1 c baby carrots
6 large baking potatoes, scrubed, chopped
32 oz beef broth, reduced sodium
1 pkg onion soup mix
1 can(s) healthy request cream of mushroom soup, or dry pkg beef gravy
1/2 c carbernet sauvignon, or merlot wine (use a good drinkng.wine).
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp seasoning salt, such as mccormick's
2-3 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 c water, cold

Steps:

  • 1. Brown stew meat in a little vegetable oil. Add McCormick's season all salt, garlic powder and onion powder to stew meat while browning. Add remaining ingredients. Set for desired time, 4hrs, 6 hrs, and 8-10 hrs. I cook mine for the longest time possible as it makes for a richer broth! This may be simmered on low for 1-1/2 hours in a DUTCH OVEN, before adding the vegetables. Once vegetables are added simmer an additional 20-30 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are fork tender!
  • 2. When vegetables are tender...thicken broth, add 4 tablespoons of cornstarch to ½ cup of cold water. Mix till smooth and add to stew. Stir well until broth is thickened.
  • 3. *The longer the stew cooks the more tender the meat and richer the broth.*
