Pour in the low-sodium beef broth, then add the bay leaf, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to mix.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for about 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

Step 9

Add the frozen peas to the stew and continue to cook for 5 more minutes.
