SAN ANTONIO BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Stove Top Directions:
• Brown stew meat in oil in a large soup pot. Add garlic for the last minute, stirring well. Add broth, tomatoes in juice, picante sauce, onions, carrots, zucchini, corn, salt & cumin. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer and cover for 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally. Combine cold water and flour and whisk with fork until smooth. Add flour slurry to soup and cook for 15 minutes longer or until thickened. Adjust seasonings to taste and serve with toppings of your choice and Sweet Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread! Enjoy!
• For the slow cooker:
• I brown my stew meat if I have time but you can skip this step. Combine everything from stew meat to the cumin in the slow cooker. Cook on low for 6 hours. Mix the cold water and flour and stir until smooth. Add flour slurry to slow cooker and continue cooking on low for 15 minutes or until thickened. Adjust seasonings to taste & serve with toppings of your choice and Sweet Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread! Enjoy!
