Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lb stew beef, 1/2" pieces
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 c flour
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 c beef broth
1 Tbsp chili powder
2 tsp dried cilantro
1 tsp dry mustard
1 can(s) sweet corn, drained
1 can(s) kidney beans, drained

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the paprika, salt, pepper and flour into a Ziploc bag. Add the beef and shake until the spice/flour mixture covers the beef pieces.
  • 2. Bring 2 Tbsp olive oil to medium heat in a large skillet. Brown the beef on all sides, stirring occasionally. Add the pepper and onion and cook until the onion is softened, about 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and stir constantly for 2 minutes. Add the broth, chili powder, cilantro, mustard, salt and pepper, and stir well to combine.
  • 3. Bring the stew to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to a medium simmer. Cook for 35-40 minutes, and then add corn and kidney beans. Cover and cook for an additional 15 minutes.
