Microwave Beef Casserole Stew
Running short on time and looking for a quick and easy meal for dinner? This casserole can be prepared in a little over 30 minutes and doesn’t even require the oven!
Ingredients
Vegetable cooking spray
1 pound beef stew meat, cut into bite size pieces*
1 1/2 cups baby red or Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered (about 6)
1 package (8 ounces) sliced fresh mushrooms
1 cup baby carrots
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon flour
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) fat-free reduced-sodium beef broth
Directions
Yield: 8 servings
Serving size: 1 cup stew
1. Lightly coat 8-inch square glass microwavable baking dish with cooking spray. Place beef in baking dish. Add potatoes, mushrooms and carrots; distribute evenly.
2. Stir together salt, pepper, thyme and flour in small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over stew mixture. Pour broth over meat and vegetables. Cover with 9-inch square of waxed paper; microwave on high for 30 minutes. (If microwave does not have turntable, turn baking dish three times.)
3. Remove dish from microwave and let stand, covered, 5 minutes before serving.
Serving suggestion: Serve with a leafy green salad and sliced tomatoes.
Variation: Add 1 can (8 ounces) no-salt-added, cut green beans, well drained.
*Note: Supermarkets carry packages of cut-up beef for stewing. However, it’s worth it to ask the butcher to cut up his or her best quality beef for stewing.
