Beef and Mushroom Stew
Ingredients
  • 1 pound stew meat, cut into bite-size pieces
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon grapeseed oil, or other oil with a high smoke point
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounce button mushrooms, thickly sliced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 14.1-ounce can cream of mushroom soup
  • 8 ounce egg noodles
  • chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Directions
  1. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large, high-sided pan. When the oil is hot, add the meat, making sure not to over-crowd the pan (repeat this step if you need to do it in two batches); cook until browned on the bottom and then flip. When the second side is brown, remove the meat to a plate and reserve for later use.
  2. Add the onions to the same pan and sauté in the drippings over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes.
  3. Return the meat to the pan, then add in the broth and soup. Cook until the meat is tender and the liquid reduces by one-quarter, about 30 minutes.
  4. While the meat cooks, bring a pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the noodles according to package directions.
  5. Serve the stew over the noodles and garnish with some parsley.
