INGREDIENTS
Beef For this easy stew recipe choose chopped stew beef or chuck steak.
Onion Diced – Yellow or white onions have the best sweet and savory cooked onion flavor to use in this recipe.
Garlic Fresh cloves of garlic are the best choice for this cook but you can also trade them out for jarred or frozen garlic if needed.
Carrots Sliced – Carrots add sweetness and a colorful crunch. You can use traditional orange carrots or add some multicolored fun with rainbow carrots.
Celery Sliced – If the stringy part of celery drives you crazy, make a shallow cut close to the stem end of the stalk, do not cut all the way through. Bend the stalk back at the cut, slowly pull downward, and watch all the unwanted string parts peel away.
Balsamic Vinegar This sweet fermented sauce makes the gravy in this dish so delightful!
Bone Broth This is the savory juice that will form the base of your sauce. You can also use low-sodium bone broth or swap this ingredient for beef stock.
Fresh Parsley Fresh parsley adds a fresh color and herbal aroma that cannot be beaten!
Worcester Sauce The complex savory flavor of this condiment is incomparable! Just a dash will make this easy Instant Pot stew even richer!
Cornstarch and 1 Tablespoon of Water These two ingredients come together to make a low-carb slurry that will thicken the stew. Use cold water for the most thickening potential.
