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

To start, heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set it aside.

When the stew is ready, season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot with crusty bread or over a bed of rice.
