Ingredients

6 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, chopped
1/4 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing
1-1/2 lb. beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 Tbsp. flour
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) fat-free reduced-sodium beef broth
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
1/2 cup water
2 cups cubed peeled yuca (cassava) (1/2-inch cubes)
1 large carrot, sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

Cook and stir bacon in Dutch oven or a large heavy saucepan until crisp. Remove bacon from pan with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 1 Tbsp. drippings from pan.
Add dressing to drippings in pan; heat on medium heat. Coat meat with flour; add to pan. Cook on medium heat until evenly browned, stirring occasionally. Add broth, tomatoes and water; bring to boil, stirring occasionally.
Simmer on medium-low heat 45 min. Add yuca and carrots; cover. Cook 45 min. or until meat and yuca are tender. Stir in cilantro and cooked bacon just before serving.
