Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Cook until onions are tender and start to caramelize around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add diced tomatoes.
Combine flour, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper in a resealable plastic bag. Add beef stew meat and shake to coat.
Heat remaining oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and brown coated beef on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
