THICK AND HEARTY SOUTHWESTERN BEEF STEW
Thick, rich and hearty beef stew that is anything BUT bland, if you know what I mean! It took me several years to perfect this recipe, and I'm proud to say that it was published in Taste of Home magazine!

Steps:
- 1. In large ziplock baggie or large mixing bowl, combine flour, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder and salt. Add meat and shake/toss til all is coated. In large heavy-bottomed pot that has a lid, brown meat over med-high heat in the 4 tbsp Crisco. Add next 8 ingredients, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring only occasionally, til meat is tender. Add carrots and potatoes, recover and simmer another 25-30 minutes or til tender. Add corn, heat through. Remove bay leaf, or, leave it in there and whoever happens to get it has to do the dishes! ;). *Can add or sub peas and/or green beans if desired. You can also add 1 rib of celery, sliced, at the same time you add the potatoes and carrots if desired. **If you like it on the thick side like we do, just mix 1-2 tablespoons cornstarch with equal amount of cold water (I use 2 TbL. each), stir into pot while simmering to thicken even more. Simmer, stirring, for several minutes. Do this at the very end. Stir gently so you don't wreck the green beans if added. Some like it thin, though. So just make to your own preference.
- 2. Serve with warm crusty french bread for sopping. Enjoy!! :D
