Autumn Beef Stew is the ultimate cozy comfort food for chilly nights, perfect for family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef chuck, cut into chunks
  • 3 large carrots, thickly sliced
  • 4 Yukon gold potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (optional, for thickening)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sear the Beef to Lock in Flavor: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high. Add the beef chunks, season well with salt and pepper, and brown them on all sides.
  2. Build That Flavor Base: Add chopped onions and garlic to the pot. Cook until soft and fragrant.
  3. Simmer Into Deliciousness: Stir in tomato paste, rosemary, and thyme. Add the carrots, potatoes, and beef broth. Bring it all to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer uncovered for about 90 minutes.
  4. Add the Peas & Thicken Up: Stir in the peas during the last 10 minutes. If you like it thicker, mix 2 tbsp flour with a bit of cold water, stir it in, and let it simmer a few more minutes.
  5. Serve It Up Hot and Fresh: Ladle into bowls, top with fresh parsley, and serve with warm crusty bread.

Notes

  • This stew is perfect for meal prep and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like celery or mushrooms for extra flavor.
