Ingredients
Using fruit at the end of a long cooking time adds both acidity and sweetness to this otherwise classic stew.
1 Tbsp. canola oil
1 cup chopped onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 lbs. lean stew beef, cubed
2 carrots, sliced
3 cups low-fat, low-sodium beef broth
1 tsp. paprika
Pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups mixed pears and apples, cubed
Directions
1. Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute until soft (5-8 minutes). Add the meat and brown. Add carrots, broth, paprika, and pepper.
2. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until meat is tender (1-2 hours).
3. Add the apples and pears. Cover and cook over low heat until fruit is just soft (10-15 minutes).
