Ingredients

Scale
  • Beef: 1.5 lbs chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • Vegetables:
    • 2 cups carrots, diced
    • 2 cups potatoes, diced
    • 1 cup celery, diced
    • 1 cup green beans, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the beef cubes and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
