Marsala Wine Beef Stew Rich and Savory Marsala Wine Braised Beef Stew Ingredients: 2 lbs beef chuck, cut into 1½-inch cubes Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 large onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 3 carrots, sliced 2 celery stalks, sliced 8 oz mushrooms, sliced 1 cup Marsala wine 3 cups beef broth 2 tablespoons tomato paste 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (or 1 tsp dried thyme) 2 bay leaves 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (optional, for thickening) Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) Directions: Season beef cubes generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown beef in batches, about 4-5 minutes per batch, then remove and set aside. In the same pot, add onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, carrots, celery, and mushrooms, cooking another 5-7 minutes until vegetables begin to soften. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes. Pour in Marsala wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce by half, about 5 minutes. Return beef to the pot and add beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low. Let stew cook gently for 2 to 2½ hours, or until beef is fork-tender. If desired, whisk flour with a little water to create a slurry and stir into the stew to thicken the sauce. Cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove bay leaves and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
