Enjoy this quick and easy weeknight hamburger stew with minimal ingredients!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 cups Beef Broth
- 1 pkg frozen peas and carrots about 2 cups
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened.
- Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Sprinkle the flour over the beef and stir to combine, allowing it to cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
- Pour in the beef broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Add the frozen peas and carrots to the pot.
- Season the stew with kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors meld.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer a thicker stew, you can let it simmer uncovered for a few more minutes.
- Serve the hamburger stew hot in bowls. It pairs well with rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread.
