Ingredients For Keto Vegetable Beef Stew:

• Beef chuck roast– Often referred to as stewing beef, this is the best cut of beef to use for stews or soups. Slice your beef into thicker chunks instead of bite-sized pieces, so that it will keep the better flavor.
• Salt and pepper– To coat the beef before adding it to the stew.
• Coconut flour or almond flour– Either almond or coconut flour is used to lightly dust the beef to brown the beef better and also enhance the flavor of the sauce.
• Olive oil– While any oil works, the olive variety is the most flavorful and the best to use in stews.
• Stewing vegetables– Onion, garlic, carrots, and jicama.
• Beef broth– Choose one with no added sugar or salt.
• Tomato paste– Just a small amount to give a flavor hit.
• Worcestershire sauce– A must for any recipe using beef.
• Bay leaf– Adds an extra layer of flavor and fabulous aroma.

Instructions For Keto Vegetable Beef Stew:

Start by preparing the beef. Season the beef with salt and pepper, then dust it with almond or coconut flour. Next, heat the oil in a large dutch oven or pot and place it over medium heat. Once hot, brown the beef on all sides, then remove it from the pot and set it aside. Add the onions, garlic, and carrots and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the onion starts to soften. Add the jicama, beef broth, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring everything to a simmer before adding the beef back in, along with the bay leaf.

Now, take the dutch oven/pot off the heat, add the bay leaf, and cover it. Transfer it to a preheated oven and let everything cook for two hours. Remove the bay leaf and serve immediately.

Slow cooker and instant pot instructions:

Easily make this dish in the slow cooker or instant pot, if you own either of them.

• Slow cooker beef stew– Season the beef and cook it in a non-stick pan until it has browned. Place it into a slow cooker, followed by the remaining ingredients. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
• Instant pot beef stew– Season the beef, then add the oil into the instant pot. Using the saute function, cook the meat until it has browned on all sides. Add the remaining ingredients, close the lid, and cook on high pressure for 30 minutes. Let the stew sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips to make the best recipe:

• Remove visible chunks of fat from the beef, as it can make the stew gritty and the beef chewy.
• Be sure to use a good quality beef broth to ensure it enhances the beef flavor, not detract from it. If in doubt, you can always use vegetable stock.
• If you don’t own a Dutch oven, you can use a deep oven-proof skillet instead.

Storing, freezing, and reheating instructions:

• To store: Leftovers should be stored in the refrigerator, covered, for up to one week.
• To freeze: Place the cooled stew in a freezer-friendly container and store it in the freezer for up to 6 months.
• Reheating: Microwave them for 30-40 second spurts or reheat in a small saucepan.
