  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

Tender beef tips cooked in a rich, savory gravy, perfect for serving over rice or mashed potatoes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 2 tablespoons water (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the beef cubes and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, then add thyme, salt, and pepper.
  5. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour or until the beef is tender.
  6. If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry, then stir it into the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes until thickened.
  7. Serve warm over rice or mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • Feel free to add vegetables like carrots or mushrooms for extra flavor.
  • If using a slow cooker, brown the beef and onions first, then transfer to the slow cooker with the remaining ingredients and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
