Beef Goulash

2 tbsps olive oil
1 onion, sliced

1 tbsp sweet paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 lb beef bourguignon, cubed
1 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsps tomato paste
1/3 cup water
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp salt
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Heat a large skillet with 2 tbsps olive oil.  Add the onion slices and cook until they start to soften. Remove to a plate.

In a bag (I like to use saved wax cereal bags) toss the beef in the paprika, salt and pepper to coat.

Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet and brown beef on all sides. Return the onions to the pan.

Mix tomato paste, water, garlic, salt and balsamic and stir into the beef and onions.  Add the bay leaf.

Heat to a boil then reduce, cover and simmer on low for
1  1/2  -  2 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaf.
