- 1 cup yellow onion, (4 ounces) cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
- 24 pearl onions, peeled
- ½ teaspoon chopped thyme

- 2 teaspoons minced garlic, (7g)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste, (20g, 15ml)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, (17g, ½ ounce)3 cups red wine, (720ml)
- 2 cups beef stock, (480ml)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, (15ml)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, (30g, 1 ounce)
- 1 pound white mushrooms, (454g, 16 ounces), washed, dried and quartered
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, (4g)
Instructions
-
Set the oven rack to the lower third position. Preheat to 350ºF (177ºC).
-
Thoroughly dry the surface of the beef with paper towels. Cut into 2-inch thick cubes, then season with salt and pepper, set aside. If needed, dry again before adding to the pan.
-
Heat a large dutch oven over medium heat. Add bacon and saute until crisp, about 6 to 7 minutes. Use a spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving the fat in the pan.
-
Heat bacon grease over medium-high heat. Once the fat is hot, add beef to the pan in a single layer, work in two batches. Sear the beef on each side until browned, about 1 to 2 minutes per side, 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer to the plate with the bacon. Repeat with remaining beef.
-
Turn heat down to medium and add the carrots, sliced onions, and pearl onions to the pan. Saute until the onions are lightly browned and tender, 10 minutes.
-
Add the thyme and bay leaf, saute for 30 seconds.
-
Add the garlic, saute for 30 seconds.
-
Add the tomato paste and saute for 30 seconds.
-
Sprinkle in the flour, stir and cook for 1 minute.
-
Slowly stir in the wine, this will help the flour thicken the sauce.
-
Add in the beef stock, stir to combine.
-
Add in the browned beef and bacon, bring the liquid to a simmer for 5 minutes.
-
Cover and carefully transfer the pot to the oven.
-
Cook until the meat is very tender, about 1 ½ to 1 ¾ hours.
-
Meanwhile, prepare the mushrooms. Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and butter, once hot and bubbling add the mushrooms. Saute until tender and lightly browned, 5 minutes. Sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon salt, cook for 2 minutes.
-
When the beef is done cooking, transfer the meat and vegetables to a medium bowl.
-
Bring the sauce to a rapid simmer over medium heat. As the fat rises to the surface, use a spoon to skim off the excess fat. Reduce the sauce until it can lightly coat the back of a spoon, about 2 to 2 ½ cups, the sauce will thicken more as it cools. Taste and season with more salt and pepper as desired.
-
Return the meat, vegetables and mushrooms to the pan, stir to warm.
-
Garnish with chopped parsley.
