- 1 1/2 lbs beef stew cubes

- 1 can of beef broth
- 1 bottle teryaki sauce with garlic
- soy sauce
- corn starch
Instructions
Brown beef in pot with a little oil. Add some salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add onions and celery. If you don't use too much oil, you won't need to drain it off (it also flavors the stew really well). Saute with beef until just soft, but a little crunchy . Add all the other vegetables. Since those are prepackaged, you don't need to wash them. Add whole bottle of teryaki sauce, whole can of beef broth and add soy sauce to taste. Add enough water to just barely cover stew. Season again with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, if needed. Simmer until veggies are done to your taste. Take about a cup of water and add 6 tblsp of cornstarch. Stir very well till you have a very smooth liquid. add slowly to stew, you shouldn't need all of it. This will thicken you stew nicely. Heat back to a simmer and serve over rice.
