      Directions<\/h2>\n
        \n
      1. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Working with half of the beef at a time, dab both sides dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper to taste.<\/li>\n
      2. Sear the beef in the skillet until browned, turning once halfway through, about 4 \u2013 5 minutes total. Transfer the browned beef to the slow cooker.<\/li>\n
      3. Add an additional 1 Tbsp oil to the skillet and repeat with the remaining beef, then leave the excess oil in the skillet.<\/li>\n
      4. Add the remaining 1\/2 Tbsp oil to the oil in the skillet (there should be about 1\/2 Tbsp left after searing the beef), and reduce the burner to medium heat. Saut\u00e9 the onions and celery for 3 minutes, add the garlic, and saut\u00e9 for another 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.<\/li>\n
      5. Pour 1 cup of beef broth into the skillet along with Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, thyme, and rosemary.<\/li>\n
      6. Layer the diced potatoes and carrots over the beef in the slow cooker, then pour the broth mixture from the skillet into the slow cooker along with the remaining 2 cups of beef broth. Season lightly with salt and pepper (adjust to taste at the end).<\/li>\n
      7. Cover and cook on low heat for 7 \u2013 8 hours.<\/li>\n
      8. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch with 1 1\/2 Tbsp of cold water until smooth. Pour this mixture into the slow cooker and gently stir. Cover and cook on high heat for 20 \u2013 30 minutes until thickened slightly.<\/li>\n
      9. Stir in the frozen peas and half of the minced parsley. Serve warm, garnished with the remaining parsley.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
