Equipment

  • Dutch Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil or more
  • 2 lb. beef chuck stew meat cut into 1" cubes
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • 2 carrots peeled, cut into rounds
  • 2 stalks celery chopped
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • 6 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 fresh thyme sprigs
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 lb. baby potatoes halved
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions
 

  • In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add beef and cook, turning occasionally, until seared on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer beef to a plate.
  • Coat bottom of pot with oil if needed and heat over medium-high heat. Cook onion, carrots, and celery, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add garlic and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant and tomato paste is darkened, about 2 minutes. Return beef and any accumulated juices to pot. Add broth, wine, Worcestershire, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and bring to a simmer; season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until beef is tender, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Add potatoes and simmer, covered, until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove bay leaves and thyme. Stir in peas and cook, stirring, until warmed through, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide stew among bowls. Top with parsley.
