Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 medium carrots, sliced
• 3 medium celery stalks, sliced
• 3 medium potatoes, diced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 4 cups beef broth
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add beef cubes in batches, browning them on all sides. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the sliced carrots, celery, and diced potatoes to the pot. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato paste, cooking for 2 minutes to slightly caramelize.

Step 6

Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

Step 7

Return the browned beef to the pot.

Step 8

Add bay leaves, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Stir well.

Step 9

Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors are well-blended.

Step 10

In the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the frozen peas.

Step 11

Remove bay leaves and stir in fresh parsley.

Step 12

Taste and adjust seasonings if needed before serving.
