Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss the cubed beef in this mixture until well-coated.
Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, reduce heat to medium and sauté diced onions and chopped carrots until softened.
Return the browned beef to the pot and add the undrained diced tomatoes, broth, and Worcestershire sauce.
Cover the pot and place it in the oven. Cook for about 2 ½ to 3 hours or until the beef is tender at an internal temperature of 165°F.
For a thicker gravy (optional), mix cornstarch with water and stir into the sauce before serving.
Serve hot over rice or noodles with plenty of gravy.
