Vegetable broth is often less expensive and can be made at home.

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.

Season oxtail with salt and black pepper, then brown in the pot on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.

Remove oxtail and set aside; add onions, carrots, and celery to the pot.

Sauté the vegetables until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add tomato paste and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

Pour in red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze.

Return oxtail to the pot and add beef broth, bay leaves, thyme, and paprika.

Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low.

Cook for 3-4 hours, until oxtail is tender and meat falls off the bone.

Remove oxtail and let cool slightly; shred the meat from the bones.

Return shredded meat to the pot and discard bones and bay leaves.

Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
