Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 cup dry red wine (Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot)
  • 3 medium carrots, sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or a few sprigs of fresh thyme)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season beef with salt and pepper and sear until browned on all sides. Remove from pot and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, sauté onions until translucent (about 5 minutes). Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Stir in the carrots and cook for another 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
  4. Pour in red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Return the beef to the pot along with beef broth, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
  5. Bring to a simmer, cover tightly, reduce heat to low, and cook for 1.5-2 hours or until beef is tender.
  6. Remove bay leaves and thyme before serving; adjust seasoning as necessary.
