CHEF JOHN'S AMERICAN GOULASH
One of my all-time favorite comfort food meals growing up was the beef goulash they served in my school cafeteria alongside a slice of buttered white bread and a carton of milk. Little did I know that it wasn't really goulash, but an Americanized version, invented to stretch a small amount of beef into enough food for a not-so-small family. This is one of those very simple dishes that does not taste simple--perfect for your weeknight dinner rotation.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and ground beef. Cook, breaking the meat into small pieces, until browned, about 5 minutes. Cook and stir until liquid is evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes more. Add garlic, salt, black pepper, cayenne, paprika, Italian seasoning, and bay leaves.
- Cook and stir until flavors come together, about 3 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, diced tomatoes, and marinara sauce. Rinse out the jar with 1 cup water and pour into the pot.

Tips:
- Using high-quality beef is essential for a flavorful goulash. Look for chuck roast, sirloin tip, or brisket.
- Brown the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even cooking.
- Don't skip the step of deglazing the pan with red wine. This adds a rich depth of flavor to the goulash.

- Simmer the goulash for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is fall-apart tender. This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the goulash with a dollop of sour cream, egg noodles, or mashed potatoes.
