Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Beef

1. Season the Beef: In a large bowl, combine the beef pieces with salt, pepper, and flour. Toss to coat the beef evenly.
2. Brown the Beef: In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef in batches, browning it on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.

Caramelizing the Onions

1. Cook the Onions: In the same pot, add the sliced onions. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden brown and caramelized, about 25-30 minutes.
2. Add the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the onions and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Building the Stew

1. Deglaze the Pot: Pour the white wine into the pot to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce by half.
2. Add Broth and Seasonings: Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and bay leaf. Stir to combine.
3. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together.
