Ingredients
- Beef Chuck Roast (2 lbs)
- Onion (1 large, chopped)
- Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
- Sweet Paprika (2 tablespoons)
- Smoked Paprika (1 tablespoon)
- Tomato Paste (2 tablespoons)
- Beef Broth (4 cups)
- Diced Tomatoes (1 can, 14.5 oz)
- Egg Noodles (8 oz)
- Bay Leaf (1)
- Dried Marjoram (1 teaspoon)
- Olive Oil (2 tablespoons)
- Salt and Pepper: To taste
- Sour cream or fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Brown the beef chuck roast in batches in olive oil until nicely seared on all sides.
- Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic in the same pot until softened.
- Add sweet paprika, smoked paprika, and tomato paste to the pot and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Return the browned beef to the pot. Pour in beef broth and add diced tomatoes, bay leaf, and dried marjoram. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring the goulash to a simmer, then reduce heat and cover. Simmer for at least 2-3 hours, or until the beef is very tender.
- Add the egg noodles to the pot during the last 20-30 minutes of cooking. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
