Puerto Rican Beef Stew Recipe 485

Steps:

• Mix flour, salt, and pepper together in a freezer-size plastic bag. Add beef and shake, coating evenly.
• Heat enough olive oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in sugar and cook until it turns golden, about 5 minutes. Add meat and cook until browned on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer browned beef to the bottom of a slow cooker.
• Stir carrots, potatoes, water, tomato sauce, wine, olives, sofrito, sazon, adobo seasoning, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce into the slow cooker.
• Cover and cook until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, on High 4 to 6 hours, or Low for 8 to 10 hours.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy oenproof pot over moderate heat and brown the meat.
• Add the peppers, onions, garlic, cilantro, vinegar, oregano, tomato sauce, bay leaves, salt and pepper and bake covered for 1 hour at 325 degrees F.
• Add the carrots and potatoes and bake 1 hour at 300 degrees F, or until the meat is tender.
• Add the remaining ingredients and simmer an additional 15 minutes.
