Description

A classic French-style beef dish with rich flavors and tender meat.


Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs beef (such as sirloin or chuck)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add beef and brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add onion and garlic to the pot. Cook until softened.
  4. Pour in red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release browned bits.
  5. Add beef broth, tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  6. Return beef to the pot. Cover and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours until tender.
  7. Serve hot with crusty bread or mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot for even cooking.
  • Let the beef rest before slicing for juicier results.
  • Substitute red wine with more broth if preferred.
