  • Total Time: 1 hour 50 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 beef chops (about 1 inch thick)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season the beef chops with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the beef chops on both sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the beef chops from the skillet and set aside.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Add the thyme and rosemary.
  4. Return the beef chops to the skillet. Bring the gravy to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour, or until the beef chops are tender.
  5. Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet. Cover and cook for another 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  6. Remove the beef chops and potatoes from the skillet and set aside. If desired, stir in the butter and heavy cream into the gravy to enrich it. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Return the beef chops and potatoes to the skillet, spooning the gravy over them. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a thicker gravy, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the gravy during the last few minutes of cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can substitute bone-in chicken thighs for the beef chops.
