Here’s a simple recipe for beef tips with mushroom sauce:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound beef sirloin tips, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Season the Beef: Season the beef tips with salt and pepper according to your taste.
- Sear the Beef: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef tips to the skillet and sear them until they are browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
- Saute Onions, Garlic, and Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Then, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are soft and browned, about 5-6 minutes.
- Make the Sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the onions, garlic, and mushrooms, and stir to coat everything evenly. Cook for another minute to cook out the raw flour taste. Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
- Simmer: Return the beef tips to the skillet and stir them into the sauce. Let everything simmer gently for about 10-15 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- Finish with Cream and Worcestershire Sauce: Stir in the heavy cream and Worcestershire sauce. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve: Once everything is heated through and well combined, remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve the beef tips with mushroom sauce hot over cooked rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles.
