Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 lbs beef chuck, cut into bite-sized cubes; 1 onion, diced; 4 garlic cloves, minced; 2 carrots, sliced; 2 celery stalks, chopped; 1 red bell pepper, diced; 1 can diced tomatoes (about 14.5 oz); 2 cups beef broth; 1 tablespoon tomato paste; 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce; 1 teaspoon paprika; 1 teaspoon dried thyme; Salt and pepper to taste; Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

In a large dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and sear them until they are browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set it aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until it becomes translucent. Then, add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots, chopped celery, and diced red bell pepper. Stir and cook for a few minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Return the seared beef to the pot. Pour in the canned diced tomatoes and beef broth. Add the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer gently for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Optionally, add red pepper flakes for heat.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley. Pairs well with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or crusty bread.
