INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz beef chuck

0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.5 cup diced tomatoes

0.5 cup beef bone broth

0.25 tsp ground cinnamon

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.13 cup orzo pasta

1 tbsp fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

  Pat the beef chuck dry with a paper towel and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 2

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and sear the beef until a deep brown crust forms on all sides.

• 3

  Add the diced yellow onion to the pot and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until translucent, then stir in the minced garlic for 30 seconds.

• 4

  Pour in the diced tomatoes, beef bone broth, ground cinnamon, and dried oregano, scraping the bottom of the pot to release the flavorful browned bits.

• 5

  Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 60 to 75 minutes until the beef is fork-tender.

• 6

  While the beef finishes, cook the orzo pasta in a separate pot of boiling water until al dente, then drain.

• 7

  Fold the cooked orzo into the beef and sauce, allowing it to absorb the liquid for 2 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley.
