Time 2h20m

Yield 12 , 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 1/2 lbs eye of round roast, visible fat removed, bite-size pieces
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onion (about 2 medium)
5 1/2 cups beef broth (low-sodium variety)
1 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1 teaspoon dried marjoram, crumbled
1 bay leaf, broken in half
1 lb red potatoes, unpeeled (about 3 medium)
2 large carrots
8 ounces fresh mushrooms (3 to 3-1/2)
1 cup red bell pepper, diced (1 medium)
1/2 cup green onion, thinly sliced (green and white parts)
2 cups beef broth (low-sodium variety)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup tomato paste (low sodium variety)
1 teaspoon salt-free Italian herb seasoning
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • * Preheat broiler.
  • * Lightly spray a broiler pan and rack with vegetable oil spray. Broil meat about 6 inches from heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until meat is brown on all sides, turning occasionally.
  • * Spray a stock pot with vegetable oil spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add oil and swirl to coat bottom of pot. Saute onions until translucent.
  • * Add meat, any pan juices, 5-1/2 cups broth, thyme, marjoram, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1-1/2 hours or until meat is tender.
  • * Meanwhile, cut potatoes into chunks, slice carrots, and quarter mushrooms. Add to pot. Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
  • * Add bell pepper and green onion.
  • * In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients. Pour into stew. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low. Cook for 5 minutes, or until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove bay leaf before serving stew.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast is a good option because it's tough and flavorful, and it becomes tender when cooked slowly.
  • Brown the beef before stewing it. This will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your stew. This will add flavor, color, and nutrients.
  • Season the stew well. Salt, pepper, garlic, and onion are all good starting points.
  • Cook the stew until the beef is tender. This will usually take at least 1 hour and 30 minutes.
  • Serve the stew with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Conclusion:

Diabetic savory beef stew is a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed by people with and without diabetes. It's a good source of protein, vegetables, and fiber, and it's low in carbohydrates. If you're looking for a satisfying and nutritious meal, diabetic savory beef stew is a great option.
