OVEN-BAKED BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Pour flour into a shallow bowl and turn beef in flour, shaking meat to remove excess flour. Heat oil in an ovenproof casserole dish over high heat. Brown beef cubes in hot oil in batches on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer beef to a plate.
• Add onion, celery, and carrots to the casserole dish, reduce heat to medium, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Pour in broth. Return beef to the casserole dish and stir in bay leaves. Cover casserole.
• Bake in the preheated oven until beef is tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove bay leaves before serving and season with salt and pepper.

EASY OVEN BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Trim any fat from meat cubes; set aside. Mix flour and seasonings together in a bag, put the meat in the bag too and shake to coat meat with the flour mixture. Place coated meat and all remaining ingredients in a 3-4 quart casserole or dutch oven and mix.
• (TRUST ME - there will be enough liquid - do NOT add more than the canned tomatoes!).
• Cover and bake at 275 degrees for 4 hours or until meat is very tender. This recipe makes four very LARGE servings (or smaller with leftovers) and is a great company recipe especially for those who can't cook or are pressed for time. Turn on or pre-set your oven to come on at 2:00 and you will be serving at 6:00. Serve with crusty bread or rolls, a green salad and a good bottle of wine. So easy and so delicious! Bon appetite!
