 Keto Beef Stew

**Ingredients:**

- 2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes

- 2 tbsp olive oil

- 4 cups beef broth

- 1 cup water

- 1 medium onion, chopped

- 3 cloves garlic, minced

- 2 celery stalks, chopped

- 2 medium carrots, chopped

- 1 medium turnip, peeled and chopped

- 1 tsp dried thyme

- 1 tsp dried rosemary

- 1 tsp paprika

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 1 tbsp tomato paste

- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

- 1 bay leaf

- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

**Instructions:**

1. **Prep the Beef**: Season the beef cubes with salt and pepper.

2. **Brown the Beef**: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Brown all sides, then remove and set aside.

3. **Cook Vegetables**: In the same pot, add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.

4. **Deglaze the Pot**: Stir in the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 2 minutes, allowing the tomato paste to caramelize slightly.

5. **Combine Ingredients**: Return the beef to the pot. Add the beef broth, water, turnip, thyme, rosemary, paprika, and bay leaf. Stir to combine.

6. **Simmer**: Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together.

7. **Final Touches**: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Remove the bay leaf.

8. **Serve**: Ladle the stew into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.

This hearty keto beef stew is perfect for a cozy dinner, offering a delicious low-carb alternative to traditional stew recipes. Enjoy!
