Portuguese Beef Stew Recipe


Ingredients


2 lbs. chuck beef roast, cut into 1” cubes

10 garlic cloves, chopped and divided

Sea salt and black pepper to taste

2 cups of beef broth

Fresh parsley, rough chopped for serving


Directions


1.    In a large bowl, add the meat, half of the garlic, paprika, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and let rest in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours for the flavors to blend.

5.    Heat a Dutch oven or stock pot over medium heat. Add the meat mixture scraping any seasoning and juices from the bowl into the pot.


6.    Add chopped potatoes to the pot.


7.    Add the onion, garlic, tomato and wine mixture to the top of the potatoes.


8.    Pour in the broth.  Add cinnamon stick and stir it all together.


9.    Bring to a low boil and cook uncovered for 30-45 minutes or until beef is tender and potatoes are cooked through.
