Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 2 large, finely chopped onion
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 3 tablespoons sweet paprika
• 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
• 1 large, diced red bell pepper
• 3 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium and add the sweet paprika and caraway seeds, stirring constantly for a minute to release the flavors.

Step 6

Add the beef cubes to the pot, stirring to coat them in the paprika mixture.

Add the diced red bell pepper, beef broth, tomato paste, and bay leaves to the pot. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.

Step 9

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Let it simmer for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors have developed.

Step 10

Stir occasionally and add more beef broth or water if the gulasch becomes too thick.

Step 11

Once cooked, remove the bay leaves, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 12
