Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 T oil (vegetable or canola)
  • 1.5 lb stew meat (cubed)
  • 1/3 C flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 C red wine
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 C diced onion
  • 2 garlic cloves (diced)
  • 1/2 tsp dry thyme
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 5 C beef broth
  • 2 large potatoes (diced)
  • 3 carrots (chopped)
  • 1 15 oz can corn (drained)

Instruction

  • Season flour with salt and pepper. Toss cubed stew meat around in the flour to coat. This is easiest done by shaking around in a large re-sealable plastic bag or a large bowl.
  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add meat to hot oil, in batches, being careful not to overcrowd. Brown beef on all sides and remove to plate.
  • Add onions to pot. Cook 2-3 minutes and then add the garlic. Cook 1 more minute, stirring. Pour wine into pot and stir well to scrape up any bits from the bottom of pot. Allow wine to reduce by about half.
  • Once wine is reduced, add bay leaf, worcestershire sauce, thyme and broth. Place beef back into pot. Bring just to a boil and then reduce to simmer. Continue to simmer for 1 hour.
  • Add potatoes and carrots to pot and simmer another 30 minutes. Add corn to pot.
  • Taste for seasoning and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
  • Simmer 10 more minutes.
  • Enjoy.
