Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Pat beef dry; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Warm oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
  • Brown beef in batches until well seared; remove to a plate.
  • Add onion, carrots, and celery; cook until softened.
  • Stir in garlic, tomato paste, thyme, and Italian seasoning; cook 1 minute.
  • Splash in Worcestershire and 1/2 cup broth; scrape up browned bits.
  • Return beef with remaining broth, tomatoes, and potatoes; bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until beef is tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Stir in mixed vegetables; simmer 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Taste and adjust salt and pepper; finish with parsley and serve.

Notes

Swap the stew beef for 1 lb of browned ground beef, or add 1/2 cup quick-cooking barley for extra heartiness. Serve with crusty bread, or swirl in a spoonful of pesto before serving for a fresh twist. Leftovers keep 4 days refrigerated; cool completely and freeze up to 3 months.
