Ingredients

6 servings

For the stew

2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into 1½-inch cubes
1 tsp salt, divided
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 lb cremini mushrooms, quartered
1 medium yellow onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium parsnips, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 stalks celery, sliced
3 cups bone broth
2 tbsp coconut aminos
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
½ tsp ground turmeric
3 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 tbsp arrowroot starch
2 tbsp cold water

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels and season with ½ tsp of the salt. Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, sear the beef on two sides for 3–4 minutes per side, until deeply browned and releasing easily from the pan. Transfer the seared beef to the slow cooker.
2
Reduce the skillet heat to medium. Add the onion and celery to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 4–5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Scrape the contents of the skillet into the slow cooker.
