Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 4 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
• 3 medium celery stalks, chopped
• 3 large garlic cloves, minced
• 12 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
• 2 large potatoes, cubed
• 4 cups gluten-free beef broth
• 3 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons gluten-free Worcestershire sauce
• 1 bay leaf
• 4 fresh thyme sprigs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes. Pat them dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. In batches, brown the beef on all sides, removing each batch to a plate once browned.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are translucent.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook for another 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms start to soften.

Step 5

Return the browned beef to the pot, along with the cubed potatoes, gluten-free beef broth, tomato paste, and gluten-free Worcestershire sauce.

Step 6

Stir to combine, then add in the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together.

Step 8

Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the stew to thicken it and cook for another 5 minutes.

Step 9

Discard the bay leaf and thyme sprigs before serving.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed, then serve hot.
