Instructions
-
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they are fragrant and translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the chopped carrots, celery, red bell pepper, zucchini, and green beans to the pot. Stir and cook the veggies for another 5-7 minutes until they start to soften.
-
Pour in the can of diced tomatoes along with the vegetable broth, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the stew to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
-
Add the red lentils to the pot and stir well. Let the stew simmer for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully.
-
Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve the Kitchen Stew hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of freshness.
