Ingredients

Directions

  1. Trim excess fat from the beef bottom round steak and cut the meat into 1/2-inch cubes.
  2. Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the beef cubes to the hot skillet and brown them for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally to sear all sides.
  4. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and celery to the skillet.
  5. Sauté the vegetables with the beef for 3 minutes until they begin to soften.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon of dry Creole or Cajun seasoning.
  7. Pour in the two 14-ounce cans of stewed tomatoes (Cajun style if available).
  8. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the mixture simmer gently for 25 minutes.
  9. Stir the stew frequently during cooking to prevent sticking and ensure even heating.
  10. Serve the hot beef and vegetable stew over a bed of freshly cooked rice.
