Directions
Wine-Braised Chuck Roast With Onions, This is a very tender chuck roast with an amazing onion gravy. I serve it with egg noodles, warm bread and a green salad. I have never been a big fan of “roast beef” but this is to die for!, Excellent! My friend left half a bottle of Moscato at my house and I’m not a sweet wine drinker. Anyway, of course you should never throw out wine and I was thinking along the lines of the once popular “Coke Roasts” and decided to give it a whirl. I cooked everything in my large cast iron pan, stove to oven. This was phenomenal! The first night, I stir-fried some fresh broccoli with ginger, sesame oil, garlic, pepper and soy sauce; cooked some ramen noodles and combined everything with some of the cut up beef, and the amazing onion broth, topped with toasted sesame seeds…delicious! Told the kids it was beef broccoli lo mein ; The next day for lunch, I took a stoneware bowl and filled it with the onion broth and chunks of beef, topped with thick sliced swiss cheese and baked for the most amazing French onion soup. Not sure if I should invite her over more often in hopes she leaves more wine, thank her, give her a taste or all of the above : Thanks for sharing!, Great beef! I made half a recipe and had to add water as the juices were evaporating. I wanted some gravy for the meat and noodles. Served with a spinach salad. YUM.
