Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ lbs beef stew meat (chuck roast, cubed)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 medium carrots, sliced
  • 3 celery stalks, chopped
  • 3 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup green beans, chopped
  • 1 cup corn (fresh, canned, or frozen)
  • 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides for about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef and set it aside.
  2. In the same pot, add diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté them until the onion is soft, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Return the beef to the pot. Add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, water, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well and bring it to a boil. Then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
  4. Add the carrots, celery, and potatoes to the pot. Simmer for an additional 20 minutes. Finally, add green beans, corn, and peas, cooking until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve it hot and enjoy!

Notes

Use high-quality beef and fresh vegetables for the best flavor. Adjust seasonings to taste, and for a thicker soup, consider adding a cornstarch slurry.
