CLEAN EATING BEEF STEW RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Add beef, in a few separate batches, and cook until nicely golden brown, about 10 minutes. Set aside on a plate.
• In that same preheated pot add in your onions, carrots, celery, and sauté stirring occasionally, 4-5 minutes.
• Stir in your garlic, rosemary, and tomato paste.
• Return the beef back into the pot, then add in potatoes, mushrooms, and bay leaves.
• Pour in the wine and broth.
• Cover your pot and simmer, over low heat, until beef and potatoes are very tender, about 40 minutes or so. Remove bay leaves.
• Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Peel and thoroughly rinse your parsnips, carrots, onions, and potatoes.
• Cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces.
• Cut your beef into 1-1/2 inch cubes.
• Season beef cubes well with smoked paprika, sea salt and pepper, then dredge the beef into the flour (or Arrowroot powder) pressing a bit to ensure a good hold.
• Heat 1 Tablespoon of oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add in beef cubes along with any excess flour and cook until nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Set browned beef aside on a plate.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil into the same pan and heat. Add in your onions, celery, carrots, and garlic then sauté until slightly golden, for about 3 minutes.
• Stir in coconut aminos and wine, then simmer until liquid is slightly cooked off.
• Place the beef back into your pot. Pour in broth and add potatoes and parsnips, then give it all a good stir.
• Stovetop method:
• Reduce heat to low, cover and let it simmer on your stovetop for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Oven method:
• You may choose to place your Dutch oven in the oven instead of the stovetop using the oven method:
• Preheat your oven to 350°F.
• Cover your pot with an oven-safe lid and cook for an hour or so until veggies and meat are super fork tender.
• Crock-pot/Slow Cooker method:
• After following above instructions to prepare & brown the meat, and sauté veggies, then add everything (all ingredients including scraped brown bits from saute pan) into your slow cooker, then give it all a good stir. I recommend cooking on LOW for 8-10 hours for best flavor.
• Instant Pot method:
• After following above instructions to cut and flour your meat and prepare vegetables then, add 1 Tablespoon of oil to the instant pot and turn on the saute function. When the oil starts to sizzle add your prepared meat.
• Cook the meat until browned on all sides.
• Set browned beef aside on a plate.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil into the pot and heat. Add in your onions, celery, carrots, and garlic then sauté until slightly golden, for about 3 minutes.
• Stir in coconut aminos and wine, then simmer until liquid is slightly cooked off.
• Place the beef back into your pot. Pour in broth and add potatoes and parsnips, then give it all a good stir, and use a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Close the lid and steam valve on your instant pot.
• Cook on high pressure for 35 minutes, then allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before doing a quick release.
• To serve:
• Transfer your stew into bowls, garnish with parsley and serve warm. Enjoy!
• Store your stew in air-tight containers. You can refrigerate up to 3-4 days and freeze it for up to 3 months, just heat it through when ready to serve.
