- In a zip-top plastic bag, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add 1 lb of cubed beef (or other protein of choice) to the bag and shake to coat evenly.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven with a lid over medium-high heat.
- Add the coated beef to the pot and stir, cooking until browned on all sides.
- Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 2 cups chopped carrots, 2 cups chopped celery, 1 large chopped onion, 4 cups beef broth, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, and 1 cup pearl barley to the pot.
- Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 45 minutes, or until barley is almost tender.
- Stir in 1 cup sliced mushrooms and 1 cup sliced bell pepper.
- Continue to cook for an additional 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the stew has thickened slightly.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
