SPANISH BEEF STEW



Spanish Beef Stew image

Beef stew is seasoned with smoked paprika, onions, garlic, and green olives. Made without potatoes, this is a great recipe to serve with simple steamed rice or even mashed potatoes, if you like. It's a stovetop recipe, so heating the oven is not needed.

Time 3h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 pounds boneless beef chuck, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 (14.5 ounce) cans fire-roasted diced tomatoes, with juice
1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, preferably fire-roasted
2 cups chopped onions
2 medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch rounds
2 medium green bell peppers, seeded and chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ tablespoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon smoked Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 large bay leaves
1 ½ cups frozen green peas
⅔ cup pitted green olives, sliced

Steps:

  • Toss chuck roast pieces with flour, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
  • Heat olive oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Toss 1/2 of the coated beef pieces in the hot oil and brown on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the pot and repeat with the remaining beef.
  • Return all the browned beef back to the pot and reduce heat to medium. Be sure to scrape up all the browned bits from the bottom of the pot or they will burn. Add diced tomatoes with juice, crushed tomatoes, onions, carrots, bell peppers, garlic, sweet and smoked paprika, oregano, and bay leaves. Stir to combine all ingredients, and bring to a boil.
  • Cover and reduce heat to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 2 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing is sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Stir in frozen green peas and olives. Cover and simmer for 15 more minutes.
  • Remove bay leaves and serve warm.

This is a recipe from a neat cookbook called, "Best Recipes From the Backs of Boxes, Bottles, Cans and Jars" by Ceil Dyer. It's another recipe I haven't tried, but would love to.

THE BEST ROAST BEEF FOR SANDWICHES



The Best Roast Beef for Sandwiches image

The best cut of roast beef for sandwiches isn't necessarily the same as what you'd want hot from the oven. A hot roast demands plenty of marbling so that the rich fat can melt and baste the meat with its goodness. Roast beef sandwiches work better made from a leaner cut, preferably one with a mineral, earthy taste and a nice chew. A top loin roast is ideal. It's got plenty of brawny flavor, and all of the fat is on the surface, which you can easily trim off after the meat is cooked. Here, the beef is roasted low and slow to ensure rare, juicy meat. This said, if you want a more economical cut, use bottom, top or eye round here instead. Just adjust the roasting time if the cut is larger or smaller. As long as you pull the meat out of the oven when it reaches between 125 and 130 degrees, you'll get nicely rare meat. More sandwich recipes.

Time 6h45m

Yield 6 to 10 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 small garlic cloves, grated
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons rosemary leaves
2 1/2 pounds boneless beef top loin roast (leave the fat on top)
Extra-virgin olive oil, as needed

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary. Spread the paste all over the meat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • When you are ready to prepare the meat, remove it from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Coat the roast lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the wire rack and roast for 75 to 95 minutes, until an instant thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 125 to 130 degrees for medium-rare.
  • Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let cool completely before carving (trim off the fat cap if you plan to serve it cold). The meat can be roasted three days ahead; cool completely before refrigerating.
