Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
Variations & Tips
For a different flavor profile, try adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of heat. You can also substitute the beef with lamb for a more traditional holiday twist. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix a tablespoon of flour or cornstarch with a bit of water and stir it into the dish during the last 30 minutes of baking. For a vegetarian version, replace the beef with hearty mushrooms and add more root vegetables like sweet potatoes or turnips.
