Ingredients

• 2 pounds Beef chuck, cubed
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion, chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 medium Carrot, sliced

• 4 cups Beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste

• 1 teaspoon Thyme, dried
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Green beans, trimmed and cut
• 8 ounces Mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In the same pot, add the onions and garlic, sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onions become translucent and fragrant.

Step 3

Add the sliced carrots and celery to the pot. Cook for another 3 minutes, stirring occasionally to combine all the flavors.

Step 4

Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth and add the tomato paste, stirring well to dissolve the paste.

Step 5

Add the bay leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 6

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the stew simmer for about 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender.

Step 7

Add the green beans and mushrooms into the pot. Stir and continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes, until the vegetables are cooked through.

Step 8

Remove the bay leaves from the stew. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your low-carb classic stewed beef warm.
