Number Of Ingredients 13

6 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cut into 1-inch-thick slices
2 lb. boneless beef chuck roast, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 lb. fresh mushrooms
1 yellow onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (14.5 oz.) fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 jar (12 oz.) HEINZ HomeStyle Savory Beef Gravy
2 bay leaves
4 carrots, chopped
1 cup frozen pearl onions
1 Tbsp. each cornstarch and water
1 Tbsp. LEA & PERRINS Worcestershire Sauce
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F.
  • Cook and stir bacon in ovenproof Dutch oven on medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 2 Tbsp. drippings from pan. Reserve bacon for later use.
  • Add half the beef to reserved drippings in pan; cook 6 min. or until evenly browned, stirring occasionally. Spoon browned beef into large bowl; cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining beef, reserving meat drippings in pan after removing second batch of browned beef from pan.
  • Add mushrooms, yellow onions and garlic to reserved drippings; cook 8 min. or until onions are softened, stirring occasionally. Add broth. Bring to boil, stirring constantly to scrape browned bits from bottom of pan. Cook and stir 2 min. Return beef to Dutch oven along with the gravy and bay leaves; stir. Bring to boil, stirring occasionally; cover. Place in oven.
  • Bake 2 hours until beef is very tender, stirring in carrots and pearl onions after 1 hour.
  • Transfer Dutch oven to stove top. Mix cornstarch and water until blended; stir into stew. Bring to boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir 1 min. or until thickened. Add Worcestershire sauce, black pepper and reserved bacon; mix well. Cook 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove and discard bay leaves before serving.
