Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high. Add 1.5 lb beef stew meat in a single layer; cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove beef to a plate.

  2. Step 2

    Add 1 sliced onion to the pot; cook over medium until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Return beef to pot.

  3. Step 3

    Add 3 cups beef broth and 1.5 lb diced potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low; cover and simmer until beef is tender and potatoes are fork-tender, about 30 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in 4 cups mixed greens; cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. Step 5

    Serve hot, drizzled with 2 tbsp balsamic glaze.
