Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1 15-ounce can canned diced tomatoes
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 medium zucchini, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 0.5 cup green olives, pitted and halved
• 0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck roast into 1.5-inch cubes. Pat dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

In a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef in batches, ensuring not to crowd the pan, and sear until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic, cumin, cinnamon, ginger, paprika, and turmeric to the onions. Stir frequently for about 1-2 minutes until aromatic.

Step 5

Add the diced tomatoes and beef broth to the pot, scraping any browned bits off the bottom.

Step 6

Return the beef to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover with a lid and let it gently simmer for about 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

After 1.5 hours, add the diced zucchini, chopped bell pepper, and halved olives. Stir well to combine.

Step 8

Continue to simmer for an additional 30 minutes uncovered, or until the beef and vegetables are tender, and the sauce has thickened.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in the chopped parsley just before serving.

Step 10

Serve the tagine hot, optionally garnished with additional parsley.
