Directions
-
Melt 1/4 cup butter in a stockpot over medium heat. Add beef, onion, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and pepper, cook and stir until meat is evenly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Add water, cover, and cook until meat is tender, about 30 minutes.
Heat olive oil and remaining butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add lima beans, celery, fennel, parsley, and lemon juice, cook and stir until lima beans have softened, about 15 minutes. Stir lima bean mixture into beef mixture, reduce heat to low and cook until thickened, adding water as needed, about 20 minutes.
