Ingredients:

5 pounds boneless beef chuck stew meat, cut in 2-inch cubes
2 teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons virgin olive oil or canola oil, divided
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
3 tablespoons ancho chile pepper powder or Mexican-style chili powder
1 (14½-oz.) can diced tomatoes with green chiles
¾ cup dry red wine or chicken broth
4 large roasted garlic cloves, minced

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 325°F.
2. Toss beef with salt and pepper. Heat 1½ teaspoons oil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add one-third of the beef and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and repeat two more times, each time using one-third the beef and 1½ teaspoons oil.
3. Add the remaining 1½ teaspoons oil to Dutch oven and cook onion until lightly browned. Stir in chile powder, tomatoes, wine and garlic; bring to a simmer.
4. Return beef and accumulated juices to Dutch oven. Cover and bake 2½ hours, stirring once halfway through cooking time, until beef is very tender.
