Instructions

  1. 01

    Season steak with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

  2. 02

    Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium high heat. Working in batches, add steak to the stockpot and cook, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 6-8 minutes; set aside.

  3. 03

    Reduce heat to medium. Add onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 04

    Add garlic and mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. 05

    Whisk in flour and tomato paste until lightly browned, about 1 minute.

  6. 06

    Stir in wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the stockpot.

  7. 07

    Stir in beef stock, thyme, bay leaves and steak. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until beef is very tender, about 30 minutes.

  8. 08

    Stir in potato; simmer until potatoes are just tender and stew has thickened, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard thyme sprigs and bay leaves. Stir in parsley; season with salt and pepper, to taste.*
