Beef stew is a traditional dish that has been an essential part of home cooking in several Latin American countries. Its origin dates back to the influence of Spanish cuisine, where meat stews are protagonists, adapting to local ingredients and techniques from each region. In countries like Mexico, it is commonly known as "estofado" or simply "beef stew," while in other places, such as Argentina or Chile, it may have similar names but with variations in preparation. In Central America, it is also a typical dish, appreciated for its comforting flavor and versatility. This dish reflects cultural fusion and the efficient use of everyday ingredients, becoming a classic that crosses borders.

How to prepare beef stew using only a skillet
To begin, cut the onion, green bell pepper, and potato into approximately 1/2-inch pieces.
Heat the oil in a large skillet, add butter, and then sauté the onion until it is almost translucent.

Add the bell pepper, potato, spices, and flour, mixing well to combine the flavors.
Stir and then pour in the beer or other selected liquid.
Cover the skillet, reduce the heat, and simmer for 30 minutes, allowing the meat and vegetables to soften and the flavors to meld.
