MEDITERRANEAN BEEF STEW WITH OLIVES, SUN-DRIED TOMATOES, BASIL



Mediterranean Beef Stew With Olives, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Basil image

I honestly don't remember where this one came from - I just have a photocopy. But it is an incredibly flavorful stew. Great over polenta, couscous, potatoes. Stored in a tightly covered container, this stew will freeze well for up to 6 months, though the basil will darken in color. You might want to freshen it up with some fresh shredded basil or chopped parsley.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs lean stewing beef, such as bottom round, cut into 1-1/2 inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions, sliced
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3/4 cup dry vermouth
1 (28 ounce) can peeled Italian tomatoes, coarsely chopped, juices reserved
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/3 cup quartered and pitted kalamata olive
1/3 cup sun-dried tomato, strips drained
1/2 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaf, shredded

Steps:

  • Pat the meat dry. In a large flameproof casserole, heat the olive oil over moderately high heat. Add the meat in 2 batches and cook, turning, until nicely browned, about 5 minutes per batch. As the meat is cooked, remove it to a plate.
  • Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and beginning to brown around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until softened and fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour int he vermouth and boil until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Then add the chopped tomatoes with their juices, the vinegar, black pepper, hot pepper, and 1-1/2 cups water.
  • Add the meat to the sauce, along with any juices that have collected on the plate. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer 1-1/4 hours. Add the olives and simmer 20 to 30 minutes longer, or until the meat is tender.
  • Add the sun-dried tomatoes and simmer 5 minutes. (The stew can be made to this point up to 2 days in advance.) Just before serving, stir in the fresh basil.

SUN OVEN MEDITERRANEAN BEEF STEW



Sun Oven Mediterranean Beef Stew image

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound boneless bottom round roast, cut into 1-inch chunks
3 leeks, white and light green parts only, cleaned, halved lengthwise, and sliced
2 teaspoons herbes de provence
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28-ounce) can diced tomato with juice
1 cup dry red wine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 pound brown mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup mixed olives, pitted
3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
1 teaspoon orange zest

Steps:

  • Set Global Sun Oven out to preheat. Combine the beef, leeks, Herbes de Provence, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and all but 1 teaspoon of the garlic in a large pot. Add the tomatoes and wine; mix well. Cover and cook in GSO until the beef is fork tender, 2 to 3 hours. About 30 minutes prior to serving, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, the reserved garlic, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms brown and any liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes. Stir the mushrooms and olives into the pot in the GSO. Cover and continue cooking until the mushrooms are tender, about 20 minutes. Combine the basil and orange zest in a small bowel; sprinkle over each serving.
