Total time: 2 h 30 min
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 1/2 lbs beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces; 2 tbsp vegetable oil; 1 onion, diced; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 2 carrots, peeled and sliced; 2 stalks celery, chopped; 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes; 4 cups beef broth; 1 tsp dried thyme; 1 tsp paprika; 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper; Salt and pepper, to taste; 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced; 1 cup frozen peas

Instructions

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef stew meat and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the meat from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onions and garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Add the sliced carrots and chopped celery to the pot, stirring occasionally until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5-6 minutes.
Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in the diced tomatoes and beef broth, then add the dried thyme, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the stew simmer for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
After the stew has simmered, add the diced potatoes and frozen peas. Continue to simmer uncovered for an additional 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the meat is fall-apart tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve the Frontier Stew hot in bowls, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy with crusty bread or a side salad for a cozy, satisfying meal that's sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
