Minutes to Prepare: 20

Minutes to Cook: 540

Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

16 ounces beef stew meat, fat trimmed, cut into 3/4 inch pieces

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 teaspoons canola oil

1/8 cup red wine or red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon whole wheat flour

1 cup low-sodium beef stock

4 garlic cloves, sliced

1 bay leaf

1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika

1 medium white or yellow onion, sliced into 1/4 inch strips (about 1 cup)

1 cup baby carrots (or 1 large carrot, chopped)

2 cups baby portabella mushrooms, wiped clean and cut into quarters (8 ounces)

Tips

Serve with 1/2 steamed potatoes, brown rice or whole wheat noodles per person.

Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.

No red wine in the house? Substitute 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar.

Directions

Pat the meat dry with paper towels. Season with black pepper.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the beef to the hot oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is no longer pink, about four minutes. Add the wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any stuck-on bits.
Stir in the flour and keep stirring for about two minutes.
Pour in the stock, bring to a boil, and cook for another two minutes. Remove from heat and pour into a slow cooker insert. Layer the remaining ingredients over the beef.
Cover and cook on low for six to eight hours, until the meat is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked.
Serve immediately.
Serving Size: Makes 4 1-cup servings

Very tasty stew. I used other mushrooms, for that's what I had on hand. Also added parsnips, as i love the flavor they give. - 10/2/13

I made this for supper last night. It was a little bland. Next time I make it I will experiment with some different spices and herbs to pep it up a little. - 10/3/13

No need to slice the onions as directed. Just slice any size or into chunks. Replace wine with coffee to yield dark, beefy gravy. - 3/7/21

I don't have a slow cooker, so I used a pressure cooker and it turned out fine. Since we love spices, I added a combination of chilli-coriander-cumin-garam masala to add some kick into this.. - 3/8/20

One tablespoon regular flour is just fine, do not worry about not having whole wheat flour, for heaven’s sakes. This sounds like a more complicated recipe than it needs to be. It’s just stew. - 3/7/19

Just bought stewing beef when I went shopping today. I will make this tomorrow so I can start it in the morning. I will use white egg noodles and white flour. I am going to use balsamic vinegar since I don't have red wine vinegar. I will also add a few more spices for added flavor. - 1/2/18
