Portuguese-Style Trinchado Beef Stew

Ingredients:

1.5 lbs beef sirloin or rump, cubed

2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons olive oil

5 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)

1/2 cup dry white wine

1/2 cup beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 bay leaf

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions:

Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat.

Season the beef with salt and pepper, then sear until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.

In the same pan, add butter and sauté garlic until fragrant.

Stir in paprika and chili flakes, cooking briefly to release flavors.

Pour in white wine and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.

Add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, mustard, lemon juice, and bay leaf.

Return the beef to the pan and stir to coat.

Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 45–60 minutes until the beef is tender and sauce thickens.

Remove bay leaf, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot with crusty bread or fries.
