Instructions

- Remove Beef from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Reserve the marinade.
- Heat Olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown Beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Set browned Beef aside.
- Add Yellow onions and Carrots to the Dutch oven and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes. Add Garlic and cook for another minute.
- Stir in All-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, creating a roux.
- Gradually whisk in reserved marinade and Beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add Tomato paste, Salt, and Black pepper.
