Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs. beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 tsp salt, divided
- 6 tbsp. all-purpose flour, divided
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp. canola oil
- 3 tbsp. tomato paste
- 2 tsp herbes de Provence
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups dry red wine
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 1/2 tsp minced fresh rosemary, divided
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 cups cubed peeled potatoes
- 3 cups coarsely chopped onions
- 2 cups sliced carrots
- 2 tbsp. cold water
- 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar

Directions
-
In a small bowl, toss beef and 1/4 tsp salt. In a large bowl, combine 4 tbsp. flour and paprika. Add beef, a few pieces at a time, and toss to coat.
-
In a Dutch oven, brown beef in oil over medium heat. Stir in tomato paste, herbes de Provence and garlic; cook until fragrant and the color starts to darken slightly. Add the wine and cook until mixture just comes to a boil; simmer until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth, 1 tsp rosemary and bay leaves. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until meat is almost tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
-
Add potatoes, onions and carrots. Cover and simmer until vegetables and meat are tender, about 30 minutes.
-
Discard bay leaves. In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 tsp rosemary, remaining 1/4 tsp salt and remaining 2 tbsp. flour. Add cold water and vinegar; stir until smooth. Stir into stew. Bring to a boil; add peas. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Top with more fresh rosemary.
