Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>INGREDIENTS (~4 servings):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>~1kg\/3lbs of beef brisket<\/li><li>1 x 398 mL can of canned whole tomato <\/li><li>450mL beef with red wine broth<br><em>(or you can use 225m mL beef broth + 225mL inexpensive dry red wine)<\/em><\/li><li>1 large onion, sliced 1\/4 inch thick <\/li><li>1 tsp <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3HYFWsl\" target=\"_blank\">soy sauce<\/a><\/li><li>1\/2 tsp dry thyme<\/li><li>1\/2 tsp salt<\/li><li>1\/2 tbsp avocado oil or any high heat oil.<\/li><li>additional salt to taste.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DIRECTIONS<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Preheat oven to 275F\/135C.<\/li><li>Slice beef brisket into approximately 2 inch thick x 1 inch wide pieces. Don&#8217;t worry about the length, we can cut this when its done.<\/li><li>Heat oil over non-stick fry pan over medium high heat.*<\/li><li>When pan is hot, place beef brisket pieces on it. Sear all sides.<\/li><li>Remove beef brisket from pan. Set aside.<\/li><li>Add sliced onions to the pan. Saut\u00e9 onions until it softens, &#8220;sweats&#8221; and turns slightly pale brown.<\/li><li>Deglaze the pan with red wine beef broth. <\/li><li>Add canned whole tomatoes, soy sauce, dry thyme and salt. Bring to a boil.<br>You can break them into smaller chunks while cooking.<\/li><li>Transfer this mixture to a roasting tray. Place the beef brisket into this mixture.<\/li><li>Cover tray with aluminum foil. <\/li><li>Bake in the center of the preheated 274F\/135C oven for 3 &#8211; 4 hours.<br>*After 2 hours, spoon over some of the mixture over the brisket pieces to avoid drying out.<br>*Repeat Step 11 every 30 minutes until its done.<\/li><li>You know it is done when you can use a small fork to cut through the meat without effort. This means the meat has broken down.<\/li><li>Remove from oven. Let it cool.<\/li><li>Transfer the gravy into a sauce pan over medium high heat. Reduce until desired consistency. Add salt to taste.<\/li><li>Ready to serve.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><em> * This is the fool-proof method. If you familiar with and confident using an oven-safe stainless steel pan that is large enough for this recipe, you can use it in place of the non-stick pan + roasting pan for the whole recipe like I did.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>**the reason I added minimal salt at first is because the gravy will be reduced later, and if you add too much salt upfront it may be too salty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This recipe is inspired by the flavorful and tender braised beef short rib we had at the Windsor Arms Hotel in Toronto a few weeks&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1430,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[15],"class_list":["post-1380","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipes","tag-gluten-free"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1380"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1380\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1435,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1380\/revisions\/1435"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1430"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sensitiveskinlifestyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
