Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sear the Beef: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and sear until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Aromatics: In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic, cooking for an additional minute.
  3. Add Spices and Tomatoes: Sprinkle in the paprika, caraway seeds, thyme, and mix well. Then add the diced tomatoes with their juices and return the seared beef to the pot.
  4. Simmer: Pour in the beef broth, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender.
  5. Season and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy hot!
