Simple Goulash

Preparation

1
Pat dry the beef stew meat with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
2
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches until nicely seared on all sides, then remove and set aside.
3
Reduce heat to medium. Add chopped onion, diced carrots, and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables soften.
4
Stir in the sweet paprika and whole wheat flour (if using) and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
5
Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the canned diced tomatoes (undrained), diced bell peppers, bay leaf, and low sodium beef broth.
6
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
7
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
