Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 lb beef stew meat
  • 28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the 1 lb beef stew meat and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the meat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Reduce heat to medium. Add the 1 chopped onion to the pot and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits.

  3. 3

    Return the beef to the pot. Add the 28 oz crushed tomatoes, 2 cups beef broth, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until the beef is tender, about 30-40 minutes. The meat should be fork-tender and the soup slightly thickened.

  5. 5

    Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh parsley or a dollop of sour cream.
