I believe the answer is:

simmer down

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'relax' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'stew' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'stew' could be 'simmer' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'simmer' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'down' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
