Preparation

Step 1

Season meat well with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour and shake off.
In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, melt butter. Add beef and brown on all sides. Add onions, carrots, and broth and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour.
Remove lid and add halved Brussels sprouts. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Stir in sauce mix and simmer for 3 minutes, or until sauce thickens. If sauce becomes too thick, thin with a little water.
Meanwhile, microwave potatoes according to package directions.
Serve hot beef and vegetables over heated mashed potatoes.
