Ingredients
:
1/4
pound sliced bacon, diced
3
pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
1
cup chopped onion
1-1/2
cups halved fresh baby carrots
6
tablespoons all-purpose flour
1
cup beef broth
1
tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1
package (10 ounces) frozen peas
1/2
teaspoon salt
1/2
teaspoon pepper
1
refrigerated pie crust
1
large egg, lightly beaten, optional
In
a Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels
to drain. Brown the beef in drippings in batches; drain and set beef aside. Add
onion to the pan; saute until crisp-tender. Add carrots, bacon and beef.
Meanwhile,
in a small bowl, combine the flour, broth and Worcestershire sauce until
smooth; add to beef mixture. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer
until meat is tender, 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Stir in peas, salt and pepper. Transfer
to an ungreased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish.
On
a lightly floured surface, roll out crust into a 12-in. x 8-in. rectangle. Cut
slits in crust. Place over filling; trim and seal edges. If desired, brush with
beaten egg. Bake at 375° until crust is golden and filling is bubbly, 35-40
minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.
