- 1 bay leaf
- 2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 cup half-and-half - or heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions
- Melt the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat, add the onions, and sauté for 3-5 minutes until they become translucent.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Add the pieces of chuck roast to the pot and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the soy sauce, beef broth, thyme, bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Mix well to combine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Whisk together the half and half and cornstarch in a small bowl to make a slurry.
- Gradually stir in the slurry mixture, and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the broth thickens slightly.

- Garnish with fresh thyme if desired before serving.
Notes
- For creamier beef and noodles, add 2-4 tablespoons of full-fat cream cheese or one cup of your favorite type of shredded cheese like sharp cheddar cheese or mozzarella.
- Keep leftovers stored in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days.
