Beef Stew
My wife has a recipe for beef burgundy which is excellent but I wanted to try making a more traditional beef stew. The weather here in Pennsylvania is starting to get cold so it is a great time for a hardy soup.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Mix flour, paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add in beef and mix until all the meat is coated.
- 2
In a Dutch oven on medium high heat add about a Tbsp of oil and get the oil hot. In batches (I needed 4) add beef and get a nice sear. Add oil between batches as needed. Set seared beef to the side in a bowl.
- 3
Add onions, celery, and peppers to the Dutch oven and cook about 5 minutes to soften. Make sure you scrape up all the beef pieces on the bottom.
- 4
Add garlic and tomato paste and cook for about 30 seconds.
- 5
Add in beef, wine, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, and Italian seasoning. Bring to a simmer and cover Dutch oven. Simmer for 2 hours.
- 6
Add in potatoes and carrots and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 30-60 minutes uncovered to cook the potatoes and carrots and to thicken the sauce slightly. After 30 minutes check to see that the potatoes are soft and cooked through. I like my potatoes and carrots to be slightly firm. If you want them softer cook the stew for an additional 30 minutes. Taste stew and adjust seasoning as needed.

I like to serve beef stew with a garnish of green onions and Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!

It’s funny... I made some chili last week. As I was thinking in my head, “What the hell goes in chili”? I started saying, “Wait, no. This is sounding like a beef stew”. So... I decided to make a beef stew now. It’s cold now and these dishes warm the soul. I never appreciated beef stew when I was younger. But I realize how fine of a dish it is in my older age haha.

I adjusted a recipe I had for a while to create my own taste.The key is to cook the chicken after coating it in salt, pepper, and flour. When adding it back into the pot from the plate, add it together with the meat's juices. It's good even without white vinegar. Recipe by LittleBird
