Step-by-Step Directions:
Step 1: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until hot. Add carrots, celery, onion, and two tablespoons of butter. Sauté the vegetables until almost tender, about 5 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic; stir and cook for 30 seconds. Transfer vegetables to a plate; set aside.

Step 2: Add bite-sized steak pieces to the pot and cook, stirring often, until the meat is brown. Transfer the browned meat to the same plate as the vegetables and discard any rendered fat. Wipe out the pot with a paper towel.


Step 3: In the same pot, melt the rest of the butter and whisk in 1 cup of flour until smooth to make a roux. Cook over medium heat until the flour mixture is darker and thicker. Whisk in the beef broth, water, and wine, stirring until smooth. Don’t worry if your roux turns out a little purple! It’s perfectly normal and nothing to be concerned about.




Step 4: Add the Montreal Seasoning, frozen vegetables, and the tomatoes. Bring to a boil, stirring often, over medium heat, then reduce heat to low.



Step 5: Add the sauteéd vegetables and beef back, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has thickened and the frozen vegetables have softened.

Step 6: Let the stew simmer for 2-3 hours to bring out all those delicious flavors! It’s perfect to enjoy with warm, crusty bread and a refreshing, crisp green salad. Bon appétit!

🍋 Simply Made Suggestions…
- Skip the wine: Not cooking with wine? No problem. Replace the red wine with an equal amount of beef broth.
- Switch up the seasoning: You can leave out the Montreal Steak Seasoning or swap it for Herbs de Provence for a different flavor.
