Categories     Soup/Stew     Beef

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 pounds stew beef, cut into 2-inch cubes
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup Marsala wine
1 pound butternut squash, trimmed and cut into 2-inch cubes
1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
3 to 4 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons fresh chopped flat-leaf parsley
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large soup pot heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, rosemary, and thyme and saute until the onions are tender, about 2 minutes. Toss the beef cubes in salt and pepper and flour. Turn up the heat to med-high and add the beef to the pot. Cook until the beef is browned and golden around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the Marsala wine. Using a wooden spoon, gently stir up all the brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the butternut squash and sun-dried tomatoes and stir to combine. Add enough beef broth to just cover the beef and squash. Bring the stew to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Season the stew with additional salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve with crusty bread alongside.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this stew with tofu instead of beef. It turned out great! The tofu absorbed all the delicious flavors of the broth and the butternut squash. I served it over quinoa and it was a healthy and satisfying meal.

I made this stew in my Instant Pot and it was done in no time. The beef was fall-apart tender and the butternut squash was cooked to perfection. I served it over rice and it was a delicious and easy meal.

I'm not a big fan of butternut squash, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The squash was actually really good in the stew. It added a nice sweetness and creaminess. I would definitely make this stew again.
