Full of tender chunks of beef, hearty potatoes and sweet peppers and carrots, this one-pot meal can be prepared in just one hour. Rich with familiar flavors, this stew is super family-friends and requires only 20 minutes of active prep time. The beer adds a compelling bittersweet flavor that layers beautifully with the creaminess of the evaporated milk and rich beef broth. Once the beer is added to the stew the alcohol will evaporate out of the dish. If you like a smoky taste, use smoked paprika in place of the traditional paprika called for. Double the recipe and freeze for too-busy-to-cook days. Keep leftovers in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for up to a month.
