Ingredients
- 2 pounds stew meat or, preferably, chuck roast
- salt and pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 large white or yellow onions
- 1 head of garlic
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 3 cups beef stock
- 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes with juice
- 2 ribs celery diced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Whatever cut of beef you choose, cut it into about 1-inch pieces. Then pat it dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- In a heavy bottomed pan heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- When the oil is hot, add the beef in batches and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the browned meat to a plate and set it aside.
- Add the butter to the pan.
- Add the onions and garlic and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have begun to wilt and brown.
- Stir the tomato paste into the onions and garlic.
- Cook the tomato paste for a minute or two.
- Add the beef stock, diced tomatoes with their juice, diced celery, and fresh parsley.
- Return the browned stew meat to the pan and stir everything together.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook at a low simmer for about 2 to 2 ½ hours or until the beef is very tender.
Notes
- When browning the beef, cook in batches and do not crowd the pan. Do add additional oil with each new batch if it's needed.
- To make peeling the garlic easy, cut off the end of each clove where it was attached to the root of the bulb. Then whack the individual cloves on a board with the flat side of a chef's knife. It will crush the cloves a bit, but the skin will pop right off.
- Any leftovers can be stored covered and refrigerated for up to three days. You can freeze the stew in airtight containers for up to three months.
