Number Of Ingredients 14

3 large onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and halved
1 4-5 lb beef brisket
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tbsp canola or olive oil
1 14 oz can whole tomatoes, undrained
2 cups dry red wine
2 stalks celery with leaves, chopped

In a large skillet, heat oil over high heat and sear brisket until browned, 3-4 minutes on each side. Place fat-side-up on top of onions. Add tomatoes and their juice, breaking them up with a fork.
