Amount Ingredient
15 oz Boneless chuck steak
2 tsp Olive oil
2 cup Water
1/4 cup Tomato paste
2 tbl Red wine vinegar
2 x Inch cinnamon stick
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Each cumin seed and pepper
1 cup Pearl onions, parboiled
Instructions:
Instructions: On rack in broiling pan broil chuck, turning once, until rare, about 5 minutes on each side; cut into 1-inch cubes. In 10-inch skillet heat oil over medium-high heat; add chuck and saute for 5 minutes. Transfer meat with slotted spoon to a 1 1/2-quart casserole, reserving the pan drippings.

Preheat oven to 350F. In same skillet stir water, tomato paste, vinegar, and seasonings into pan drippings; bring to a boil, stirring to scrape up any browned particles. Pour over meat in the casserole; cover and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Add onions, cover, and bake until meat is tender, about 30 minutes longer. Remove and discard cinnamon stick. Top with feta cheese and bake, uncovered, until cheese is softened and heated through, about 5 minutes.

Makes 4 servings.
