Ingredients
Instructions
- In a large zip-top bag, add meat, salt, pepper, garlic and Italian seasoning, shake until well coated.
- In a large pot on medium-high heat, add cooking oil and sear the meat on all sides for about 2-3 minutes. You may have to work in batches so you don’t crowd the meat. Remove and set aside on a plate.
- Add another tablespoon of oil, then add onions to the pan, sauté for about 2 to 3 minutes, until onions start to soften, add balsamic vinegar to deglaze the pan. Stir in the tomato paste, pepper paste and cook for about 2 minutes. Add the beef back to the pan then toss in the potatoes, carrots, celery, Italian seasoning, and stir in the Vegetable broth. If there is not enough liquid to cover the vegetables, add water – only as much as needed.
- Bring to a boil then turn heat down to low, cover and simmer for 55 minutes – 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and meat is tender to your liking.
- For a thicker stew, in a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch with water. Turn heat back to high and stir cornstarch mixture into stew. Allow stew to boil and thicken up while stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, adjust seasonings and serve hot.
- Serve and enjoy!
