Ingredients

• 1000 grams beef chuck (boneless, cut into 1-inch cubes)
• 2 yellow onions (finely chopped)
• 4 carrots (peeled and cut into chunks)
• 2 celery stalks (chopped)
• 4 potatoes (peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes)
• 3 garlic cloves (minced)
• 1000 ml beef broth
• 250 ml dry red wine
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 bay leaves
• 4 sprigs fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Season the beef chuck cubes with salt and pepper, then lightly coat them with flour.

Step 3

Working in batches, sear the beef in the pot until browned on all sides, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove the beef and set it aside.

Step 4

In the same pot, add the chopped onions, carrots, and celery, and cook for about 5 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Deglaze the pot by adding the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring to a simmer and let the wine reduce by half, about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Return the seared beef to the pot, then pour in the beef broth. Add the bay leaves and thyme sprigs, and stir to combine.

Step 8

Cover the pot with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and let the stew simmer gently for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Add the potatoes to the pot and continue simmering for an additional 30 minutes, or until the potatoes and beef are tender.

Step 10

Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 11

Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs before serving.

Step 12

Serve the Grison Beef Stew hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy!
