When the weather grows cold, what better comforting dish is there besides Beef Stew?
Ingredients
2 T olive oil
½ cup flour
1½ t sea salt
1 t pepper
2 pounds chuck roast
2 onions large, divided or 3 smaller sweet onions
1 cup red wine dry
2½ cups beef stock divided
6 cloves garlic smashed
1 lb carrots
1 lb potatoes Yukon gold
6 ounces mushrooms
Instructions
1. Combine the flour, salt, thyme, and pepper into a medium size container or bag. Cut up the beef into 1-1½” cubes and toss the beef cubes in the flour mixture. Reserve the remaining flour.
2. Add the olive oil to the inner pot of the Ninja Foodi and turn the sear/saute on high. When the oil is very hot, add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides.
3. Mince the garlic and cut one onion into large chunks and add them to the pot.
4. Deglaze the pot with the wine and scrape the bottom with a non-stick-safe utensil to remove the browned bits (fond) from the bottom of the pot.
5. Add in 2 cups of the beef broth (reserve ½ cup for later) to the inner pot. Stir well. Put the pressure lid on and turn the black valve to seal. Pressure cook on high for 10 minutes. When the time is up, immediately release the pressure.
6. While the beef is pressure cooking, cut up the carrots into ½” slices, quarter the mushrooms, and cut the potatoes and onions into 1″ pieces.
7. When the pressure has been released, add in the Worcestershire sauce and the vegetables. Place the pressure lid on and turn the valve to seal. Pressure cook on high for 3 minutes. When done, immediately release the pressure.
8. Remove about 1 -1½ cups of the broth from the pot and place in canning jar or other container. Add remaining ½ beef broth (that is cold or room temp) and then add the flour on top. Combine the flour with the broth well. Add back into the inner pot with the remaining stew and stir.
9. Simmer on medium for 10 minutes to cook the added flour and thicken the stew.
10. Serve and ENJOY immediately!
