Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 pounds beef chuck roast, fat trimmed and diced into 1 to 1½-inch pieces
- 1 yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 to 3 carrots, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
- 2 to 3 stalks celery, diced (about 1 cup)
- 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 8 cups beef broth (regular or low-sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
- 6 to 8 ounces egg noodles, uncooked (about 2 cups)
- Fresh parsley, optional for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
- Add the diced beef and sear for 5–6 minutes, flipping to brown all sides.
- Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until vegetables soften.
- Stir in garlic, salt, oregano, pepper, rosemary, and thyme. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Pour in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well and bring to a boil.
- Cover and reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 1 hour, or until beef is fork-tender.
- In the last 10–15 minutes of simmering, add egg noodles and peas. Stir occasionally until noodles are tender.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. Add more broth if needed for consistency.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- For quicker cooking, use pre-cooked shredded beef or leftover roast.
- Adjust herbs to taste or use fresh versions if available.
- This soup stores well—refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- If reheating, add extra broth to loosen the texture as noodles absorb liquid over time.
