Ingredients

1/2 pound boneless top loin steak (New York strip or shell), trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 carrots, thinly sliced
2 celery ribs, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped thyme
1/2 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup diced tomatoes with some juice (from a 14-oz can)
1 3/4 cups beef broth
2 1/4 cups water
2 cups chopped kale leaves
1 cup medium egg noodles, cooked

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Pat steak dry. Heat oil in a 4-to 5-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Cook steak until browned on all sides and medium-rare, about 3 minutes, then transfer to a plate.

    Step 2

    Cook onion, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, about 8 minutes.

    Step 3

    Stir in potatoes, tomatoes with juice, broth, and water and simmer, partially covered, until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in kale and cook, uncovered, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in steak with meat juices, cooked noodles, and salt and pepper to taste.
