→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 pound small potatoes, cut in half
02 -
1 1/2 pounds beef cut into stew-sized chunks
03 -
1/4 cup broth made from beef
04 -
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
05 -
4 tablespoons melted, unsalted butter
06 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
07 -
1 teaspoon paprika with a smoky flavor
08 -
1 teaspoon onion seasoning
09 -
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves
10 -
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
11 -
1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust as needed)
12 -
1/4 teaspoon black ground pepper
# Instructions:
01 -
Grab a skillet, heat olive oil on medium-high, and brown the beef chunks on each side for about 2-3 minutes. Move them all into your slow cooker after they're browned.
02 -
Throw the potato halves into the slow cooker along with the beef.
03 -
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, smoked paprika, minced garlic, onion seasoning, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Drizzle this over everything in the slow cooker.
04 -
Pour the beef broth right on top of the potatoes and meat in the slow cooker.
05 -
Pop the lid on the slow cooker and let it work. Set it to low for 6-8 hours, or go for high heat for 3-4 hours. It'll be ready when the beef softens up and the potatoes are done.
06 -
Spoon it into plates or bowls while warm. Sprinkle with parsley if that's your thing!
# Notes:
01 -
For a creamier flavor, stir in some heavy cream during the last 30 minutes.
02 -
Swap the baby potatoes for carrots or sweet potato chunks if you feel like switching it up.
03 -
If you're in a rush, you can skip searing the beef—still delicious.
