Help, my 8 year old boy will not eat anything that has broth or a sauce on it. I''m trying to come up with a recipe that uses stew meat (which is cheap now) that he will eat. I know stew meat is tough and is usually cooked slowly in liquid to make it more tender...but then my kid won''t touch it. I''m thinking maybe I could treat stew meat like ribs....precook with some sort of liquid then finish on the grill so my kid doesn''t notice a sauce? Would it work? Any ideas hugely appreciated.
This is my mother''s recipe for ribs....would it work with stew meat? Other recipe ideas hugely appreciated!
8 meaty beef short ribs (4 lbs.)
1/2 t. @ salt & pepper, mixed
2 T. oil
1 large onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, chopped
2 t. dried rosemary
1 C. dry red wine
1 (14 1/2 oz.) can beef broth
2 T. tomato paste
1/2 C. water
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
Creamy Polenta
2 T. chopped parsley
Preheat oven to 375 deg. Season short ribs with salt & pepper mix. Brown ribs in oil in large skillet on all sides. Remove. Add onion, garlic & rosemary to skillet; cook over medium-high heat 5 to 6 minutes. Spread onion mixture in roasting pan. Place ribs, meaty sides up, on top. Pour wine into skillet. Bring to a boil; boil 4 min. until reduced by half. Whisk in broth & tomato paste: return to boil. Pour over ribs. Cover roasting pan tightly (with foil if necessary). Braise in oven 2 hrs. till beef is fork-tender & falling off bones. Uncover; remove beef from bones with tongs: place on platter; cover w/ foil to keep warm. Discard bones. Skim fat off onion mixture. Puree onion mix in blender till smooth. Transfer puree to saucepan, add water & Worcestershire; heat through.
Thinking at this point, I''d pop the stew pieces onto skewers and put them in the George Foreman grill to dry them out a bit for my son. Would it work?
