Step-by-Step Instructions for Tuscan Beef Stew
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Season the beef roast with kosher salt and black pepper, allowing it to sit.
  2. In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the sliced onion and garlic for 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add the beef chunks and minced rosemary to the pot, cover, and braise in the oven for about 2 hours.
  5. After 2 hours, stir the stew and continue cooking uncovered for another 1 to 1.5 hours.
  6. Transfer the beef to a plate, strain the cooking juices, and add red wine. Reduce over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes.
  7. Return the beef to the pot, sprinkle with minced rosemary, and heat through for about 5 minutes.
  8. Serve hot with polenta, mashed potatoes, or pappardelle noodles.
