This hearty beef stew is infused with the rich flavors of red wine, making it a comforting and elegant dish perfect for chilly evenings. The wine adds depth and complexity to the stew, complementing the tender beef and hearty vegetables.
Ingredients: 1 lb beef stew meat. 2 cups red wine such as Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon. 2 cups beef broth. 1 onion, chopped. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 2 carrots, sliced. 2 potatoes, diced. 1 cup mushrooms, sliced. 2 tbsp tomato paste. 2 tbsp olive oil. 1 tsp dried thyme. 1 tsp dried rosemary. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: In a large bowl, marinate the beef stew meat in 1 cup of red wine for at least 30 minutes. In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, saut until softened. Add marinated beef to the pot and brown on all sides.
