Best Red Eye Beef Stew Recipes

SUNNY'S EASY RED-EYE BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Season the beef cubes on all sides with salt and pepper. In a large, ovensafe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the butter. Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper and cook until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove to a plate. Working in batches, sear the beef cubes and jalapeno halves on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove to a bowl, leaving the fat in the pot. Toss the seared beef cubes and jalapeno with the flour.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Add the onions, paprika and sage to the pot and cook, stirring, until the onions are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, ground and cubed beef and jalapenos to the pot. Add the beef stock and 1 cup of the coffee. Season with a pinch of salt. Cover and cook in the oven until the beef is tender, about 4 hours.
• At the 4-hour mark, add the potatoes, carrots and remaining 1/2 cup coffee. Cover and continue to cook until the potatoes and carrots are tender, about 1 hour. Skim off any fat from the top, then spoon the stew over the rice. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
