How to Make Beef Stew With Cheddar Dumplings

  1. In a large Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown 1.5 lbs beef stew meat cubes on all sides.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 4 cups beef broth, and 1 beef bouillon cube.
  3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour.
  4. Add 2 large carrots, peeled and chopped, and 1 medium yellow onion, chopped.
  5. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  6. Stir in 1 cup of trimmed green beans.
  7. Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of biscuit mix, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/4 cup milk. Stir until a soft dough forms. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed.
  8. Drop the dumpling dough by rounded tablespoons onto the bubbling stew.
  9. Cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and fluffy.
  10. Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
