For an even richer flavor, sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will ensure a better crust forms.
If you prefer a thicker stew, you can stir in a tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with two tablespoons of cold water during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Serve this delicious stew over a bed of fluffy white rice, creamy mashed potatoes, or crusty bread for soaking up the flavorful broth.
Consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika for an extra layer of smoky depth.

    I didn't have sofrito on hand, so I made my own with a mix of peppers, onions, garlic, and tomatoes. It turned out great!

    I added a pinch of smoked paprika for a deeper flavor. It was a hit!
