Recipe Ingredients:

1 1/2 lb boneless beef round, cut 1" cubes
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
2 tsp olive oil
Peel of half an orange
2 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp dried thyme leaves
1/8 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
8 oz fresh mushrooms, quartered
8 sun-dried tomatoes, quartered
1 can fat-free reduced-sodium beef broth, (14 oz)
6 small potatoes, unpeeled, and
cut into wedges
1 cup baby carrots
1 cup fresh pearl onions, outer skins removed
1 tbsp cornstarch, mixed with
2 tbsp water

Recipe Instructions:

Combine beef, wine, oil, orange peel, garlic, bay leaf, thyme and pepper in large glass bowl. Refrigerate, covered, at least 2 hours or overnight.

Place beef mixture, mushrooms and tomatoes in large nonstick skillet or Dutch oven. Add enough beef broth to just cover ingredients. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover; reduce heat to low. Simmer 1 hour.

Add potatoes, carrots and onions; cover and cook 20 to 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender and meat is no longer pink. Remove meat and vegetables from skillet with slotted spoon; cover and set aside. Discard orange peel and bay leaf.

Stir cornstarch mixture into skillet with sauce. Increase heat to medium; cook and stir until sauce is slightly thickened. Return meat and vegetables to sauce; heat thoroughly.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
