1 medium yellow onion, finely diced

2 stalks celery, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
1 ½ cups beef broth
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp dried oregano
Ingredient note
Herbs and spices can carry nickel, so a low nickel diet limits them, but the small amount of oregano used to season this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid oregano, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp dried thyme
1 bay leaf

For serving

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels and season all over with the salt and black pepper.
2
Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the beef and sear, undisturbed, for 4–5 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms on all surfaces. Transfer the beef to a plate and set aside.
