Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 8h40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon sweet paprika, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for coating
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound small white potatoes, halved
1/2 pound cremini mushrooms, halved
3 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup red wine
2 cups low-sodium beef broth
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 teaspoon caraway seeds, optional
1/2 cup loosely packed parsley leaves, chopped
Sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Toss the beef with the paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Coat in flour and shake off any excess. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook undisturbed until it begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, turning the beef as needed, until mostly browned, about 3 minutes more. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the beef to the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker; add the potatoes, mushrooms, carrots and onions and stir to combine.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the tomato paste and stir until the oil begins to turn brick-red, about 1 minute. Add the flour and wine and whisk until thick (it's OK if there are some lumps). Add the beef broth, thyme, caraway if using, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and bring to a simmer, whisking; continue simmering and whisking until the gravy is smooth and thick, about 4 minutes.
  • Pour the gravy into the slow cooker, cover and cook on low for 8 hours. The meat and vegetables should be tender.
  • Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley. Serve the stew in bowls with dollops of sour cream and a sprinkle of paprika.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, beef stew meat, or short ribs are all good choices for this stew. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly in liquid.
  • Brown the beef before adding it to the slow cooker: This will help to develop flavor and prevent the beef from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, color, and nutrients to the stew. Some good vegetables to use include potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, and spinach.
  • Add some herbs and spices: This will help to flavor the stew. Some good herbs and spices to use include thyme, rosemary, oregano, garlic, and pepper.
  • Cook the stew on low for 8-10 hours: This will allow the beef to become tender and the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the stew with a side of bread or rice: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:
