Ingredients
  • 2 lbs beef stew meat, cubed
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup grape juice
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup whole milk

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Season the Beef: In a large bowl, toss the cubed beef with flour, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Sear the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set it aside.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Combine and Simmer: Return the beef to the skillet. Stir in the beef broth, grape juice, tomato paste, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the beef is tender. Stir in the frozen peas during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
  5. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, parsley, and chives.
  6. Cut in the Butter: Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Add Milk: Gradually pour in the milk, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  8. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  9. Transfer Filling: Pour the beef filling into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  10. Add Biscuit Topping: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough onto the beef filling, spacing them evenly.
  11. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Notes

Make Ahead: Prepare the beef filling a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble and bake the pot pie just before serving. Customize the Herbs: Experiment with different herbs like dill or tarragon for a unique flavor twist. Ensure Flaky Biscuits: For the flakiest biscuits, make sure your butter is cold and handle the dough as little as possible. Serve with a Side: Pair this pot pie with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
