Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 lb beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season beef cubes with salt and pepper, then brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove beef and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add onions, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir to coat. Gradually pour in beef broth while stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer until the sauce thickens.
  4. Return the beef to the skillet along with thyme, rosemary, and frozen peas. Simmer for 10 minutes while you prepare the biscuit topping.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, parsley, oregano, and garlic powder. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk until just combined.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the hot beef filling. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Notes

For the fluffiest biscuits, keep your butter cold and handle the dough as little as possible. Overmixing will result in tough biscuits. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
