For a richer flavor, try using beef broth instead of water during the simmering process. Adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika can enhance the depth of flavor. Serve over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or creamy polenta for a complete meal. Leftovers taste great the next day!

01
StepIn a bowl, combine flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
