Instructions

1
Pat the beef cubes dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the beef in batches until browned on all sides, then remove and set aside.
2
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-5 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic, sliced carrots, and diced potatoes, cooking for another 5 minutes until slightly tender.
3
Return the seared beef to the skillet. Add the chopped cabbage, beef broth, dried thyme, and smoked paprika. Stir everything to combine, ensuring the cabbage begins to wilt slightly.
4
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
5
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If the sauce is too thin, remove the lid and increase heat for a few minutes to reduce. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different cut of beef?

Yes, chuck roast or even ground beef can be used. If using ground beef, brown it before the vegetables and drain any excess fat.

What if my cabbage doesn't wilt down?

Cabbage will significantly reduce in volume as it cooks. If you have a lot, add half initially, let it cook down a bit, then add the rest. Ensure your skillet has a tight-fitting lid to help steam it.

Can this recipe be made ahead?

This dish reheats well. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You may need to add a splash of broth when reheating to maintain moisture.
