Instructions

Creating savory French onion beef over rice can be a fun and rewarding experience. Follow these simple steps for a delicious result:

1. Prepare the Beef: Cut the chuck roast into bite-sized pieces, seasoning with salt and pepper.
2. Sear the Beef: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef pieces and sear until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.
3. Cook the Onions: In the same pot, add butter and sliced onions. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown (about 20-25 minutes).
4. Add Seasonings: Stir in garlic powder and thyme, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
5. Combine Ingredients: Return the beef to the pot and pour in the beef broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.
6. Simmer: Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the beef is tender.
7. Prepare the Rice: While the beef is simmering, cook the rice according to package instructions.
8. Serve: Once the beef is tender, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve the savory beef and onions over a bed of rice.
9. Garnish (optional): Top with shredded Swiss cheese and fresh parsley for an extra touch of flavor.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible dish effortlessly. Each phase is designed to build flavor and ensure a satisfying meal.
