Time 1h55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

2 pounds stewing beef, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 large red bell peppers, seeded and cut into chunks
2 large yellow bell peppers, seeded and cut into chunks
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and cut into chunks
1 large potato, cut into chunks (optional)
1 large yellow onion, cut into chunks
3 cloves garlic, minced
5 cups beef broth
½ cup dry red wine
⅓ cup tomato paste
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried)
1 teaspoon sweet paprika powder
1 teaspoon crushed whole peppercorns
1 bay leaf

Steps:

Sprinkle the cubes of beef with the salt, pepper and flour, toss briefly to thoroughly coat the beef.
Heat the oil and butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef, a few cubes at a time so as to not overcrowd. Brown the beef on all sides and transfer to a plate.
Add the bell peppers, onions and garlic to the Dutch oven and cook for 5 minutes until softened, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the red wine and bring to a rapid boil for 2 minutes.
Return the beef to the Dutch oven with the remaining ingredients. Bring the stew to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered for 90 minutes until the beef is fork tender.
Note: This stew is even better the next day.

Tips:

Select the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, and short ribs are good choices for stews because they have a lot of connective tissue that breaks down and tenderizes during cooking, resulting in a rich, flavorful broth.
Brown the beef before stewing: Browning the beef in a hot pan before adding it to the stew pot creates a flavorful crust that adds depth to the stew.
Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the stew, so it's important to use a good quality broth that is flavorful and well-seasoned.
Add vegetables and herbs: Vegetables and herbs add flavor, color, and texture to the stew. Common vegetables used in beef stews include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes. Herbs that pair well with beef stew include thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
Cook the stew low and slow: Stews are best cooked low and slow, over low heat for a long period of time. This allows the flavors to develop and the beef to become tender.
Thicken the stew, if desired: If you want a thicker stew, you can add a thickening agent such as flour or cornstarch. Be sure to whisk the thickening agent into a small amount of broth before adding it to the stew pot, to avoid lumps.

Conclusion:

One-pot beef pepper stew is a hearty, flavorful, and satisfying meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can create a delicious beef stew that your family and friends will love.
