Notes

  • In this recipe, I like to keep the meat chunky. It’s best to use room temperature meat so it will cook evenly. Pat your meat dry with a paper towel so that it browns rather than steams. Place it in the pan and let it sit for about a minute. When you flip it over, it will be easy to break up into flavorful bite-size chunks.
  • Leftovers will last in the fridge for four to five days, stored in an airtight container. It reheats nicely. You can also cool the ragoût completely, wrap it tightly, and freeze it for two to three months.
