ingredients
- 1133.98 g beef tips
- 59.14 ml all-purpose flour
- salt & pepper
- 14.79 ml olive oil
- 1 vidalia onion, very large (cut lengthwise and sliced very thinly)
- 118.29 ml beef broth
- 118.29 ml white wine (I use dry Vermouth for my white cooking wine)
- 14.79 ml dried basil
- 453.59 g bag frozen lima beans (I prefer baby lima beans)
- 118.29 ml half-and-half
- 14.79 ml cornstarch
- 283.49 g can refrigerated biscuits, 10 count
directions
- Toss the beef tips with the flour, salt and pepper in a large Ziploc bag to coat well. Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Brown the beef in the pan. Once browned, reserve beef on a plate and cook the onions until soft. Return the beef to the pan, add the broth, white wine and basil to the pot. Turn down to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 2 hours (can cook for longer if necessary, just keep on low heat). Toward end of cooking time preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir the lima beans into the stew. In a measuring cup mix the half-and-half with the cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved. Stir it into the stew. Turn heat up to medium-high and heat to almost boiling stirring regularly. Transfer stew to large 9 by 13 glass pan (I actually use a little larger corning ware pan) Open biscuits can and place individual biscuits on top of the stew. Cook in 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes until biscuits are golden brown.

I have been a member of recipezaar and food.com for years. This is definitely my go-to place for recipes and love that I can have all my individual cookbooks to sort and store recipes. ? I like to experiment when I cook and find that I rarely follow a recipe as it is written. I am also pretty health conscious and try to cook low-fat for regular everyday meals (you can't skimp on the rich stuff for holiday meals & treats!). I also avoid processed foods and use fresh wholesome ingredients whenever possible.
