Description

Warm up your evenings with this irresistible Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Beef Stew, featuring tender beef simmered in a sweet and savory sauce that will delight your taste buds.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 medium carrots, sliced
  • 4 medium Yukon gold potatoes, diced
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 cups low-sodium beef broth

Instructions

  1. Cut the beef chuck roast into bite-sized pieces. Slice the carrots and dice the potatoes into uniform sizes for even cooking.
  2. In a pan over medium-high heat, add a splash of oil. Sear the beef pieces until browned on all sides (about 5 minutes).
  3. In your slow cooker, combine the seared beef with chopped onions, carrots, potatoes, minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, and beef broth. Stir everything together until well mixed.
  4. Cover your slow cooker and set it on low heat. Allow it to cook for about 8 hours or until the beef is fork-tender.
  5. For a thicker stew, mix 2 tbsp cornstarch with water to create a slurry during the last hour of cooking; stir it in gently.
  6. Ladle generous portions into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Pair with crusty bread for an unforgettable meal!
