How to cook deliciously - Spicy Ground Beef Stew

1 . Stage

Crumble ground beef into a stockpot set over medium-high heat; add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease except 1 tablespoon of drippings.

2 . Stage

Stir carrots, celery, onion, and garlic into the ground beef and drippings; cook and stir until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes, diced tomatoes, chopped tomatoes, peas, corn, green beans, adobo seasoning, rosemary, thyme, and marjoram; stir until evenly mixed. Add beer, water, and beef base; stir well. Stir in cilantro, lemon juice, and bay leaf. Pour 1/4 cup more water over the mixture if needed to moisten mixture, replenishing as needed while cooking.

3 . Stage

Bring soup to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring regularly, until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour.
