1 whole yellow onion
Directions
9 STEPS
1
Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes, and set aside.
2
Mince the garlic, chop the celery, dice the onion, and cut the carrots, parsnip, turnip, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces.
3
In the Instant Pot, combine the prepared beef, garlic, celery, onion, carrots, parsnip, turnip, and zucchini.
4
Add the Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, Italian seasoning, and black pepper to the Instant Pot, and give everything a good stir to combine.
5
Pour in the beef broth, ensuring all ingredients are submerged, and stir well.
6
Place the lid on the Instant Pot, and set the pressure valve to sealing. Cook on manual high pressure for 20 minutes.
7
Once cooking time is up, allow a natural pressure release. When the pressure valve drops, carefully remove the lid.
8
Turn on the sauté function and sprinkle in the xanthan gum, stirring to evenly distribute it. Allow the stew to come to a boil and thicken for 4-5 minutes.
9
Taste the stew and, if needed, adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
