BEEF STEW, PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN`S FAVORITE

Ingredients
4	teaspoon	oil
2	each	large onions, sliced
2	teaspoon	salt 4 lb lean beef stew meat
1	cup	burgundy wine
1	pk	frozen artichoke hearts
2	pk	refrigerated biscuits, (8 oz)
1	cl	garlic, split
1/3	cup	flour
2	teaspoon	dill weed
1	cn	beef consomme
1	cn	mushrooms (drained)
1		butter 1 x parmesan cheese, grated

Directions:
Heat oil. Saute garlic and onions. Remove. Mix flour, salt, pepper. Dredge meat and brown well. Return onion to pot. Add dill weed, wine, and consomme. Cover tightly and simmer about 2 hours or until meat is tender. Cook artichokes 1 minute less than package directions. Add to meat. Add mushrooms. Mix gently. Taste for seasoning. Pour into 2 1/2 quart casserole. Crown with biscuits (brush with butter and parmesan cheese). Bake 15 to 20 minutes at 400 degrees. Note: I usually cook the stew in the pot, add canned artichokes (not marinated) with the mushrooms, simmer until the mushrooms are done, and serve with french bread. Eliminates the frozen artichodes, canned biscuits, and baking.
