Beef Paprikash

4

Serves 6

Lean, flavorful rump roast is an excellent choice for this stew, but you can use any well-trimmed stew meat. Egg noodles are the standard for serving with paprikash, but boiled or mashed potatoes, rice or polenta are also delicious options.

    Ingredients: 
    • 2 teaspoons expeller-pressed canola oil
    • 2 pounds beef rump roast, cut into 1-inch pieces
    • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
    • 2 onions, halved and sliced
    • 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    • 2 red or green bell peppers, diced
    • 3 tablespoons paprika
    • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • 1 1/2 cup beef broth
    • 1 1/2 cup canned crushed tomatoes
    • 1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt or lowfat sour cream

    Method: 

    In a large Dutch oven or stew pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle beef with salt and add half to the pot; cook, stirring frequently, until browned, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer beef to a bowl. Repeat with remaining beef.

    Return the pot to medium heat and add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, until onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in bell peppers, paprika and cayenne. Add broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Return beef to the pot, lower the heat and simmer, covered, until the beef is very tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Serve in bowls, topped with dollops of yogurt or sour cream.
