To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 pound beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 tablespoon crushed peppercorns
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

To start, heat a large pot over medium-high heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the beef and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.

Add the flour to the pot and stir until the vegetables are coated. Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring constantly. Add the heavy cream, crushed peppercorns, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Stir until everything is well combined.
Add the beef back to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let the stew simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
The Creamy Peppercorn Beef Stew is ready to serve! This dish is perfect for a cozy night in and pairs well with crusty bread or mashed potatoes. The creamy sauce and bold peppercorn flavor make this dish a standout.
