Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sear the Beef

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef stew meat and sear it on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent. Add the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, and chopped bell pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the seared beef to the pot. Add the canned tomatoes, beef broth, red wine, and dried Italian herbs. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Dish

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors are well combined.

Serving

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, taste the spezzato and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
