Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large yellow onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 3 medium-sized carrots
• 2 celery stalks
• 3 medium-sized potatoes
• 1 small head green cabbage
• 6 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 bay leaf
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck into 1.5-inch cubes and season generously with salt and pepper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Brown the beef in batches, ensuring all sides are golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 4

Dice the onion, mince the garlic, slice the carrots and celery, and cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Shred the cabbage into medium slices.

Step 5

In the same pot, lower the heat to medium and sauté the onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Stir in the tomato paste, cooking for 1-2 minutes to develop its flavor.

Step 8

Return the beef to the pot, then add the beef broth, dried thyme, bay leaf, and carrots. Stir well and bring to a boil.

Step 9

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Step 10

After 1 hour, add the celery, potatoes, and cabbage to the stew. Stir, cover, and continue to simmer for another 30-40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Step 11

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

Step 12

Discard the bay leaf before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm with crusty bread or rice if desired.
