  1. In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef chunks and brown them on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  4. Add the diced bell peppers and tomato paste to the pot, stirring to combine.
  5. Return the browned beef to the pot and pour in the beef broth. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the Beef Goulash over cooked noodles or potatoes, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
  8. Enjoy!
