Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 1 ¼ pounds sirloin steak
Produce and Seasonings:
- ½ cup onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper
Cooking Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over high heat at 450°F. Season 1 ¼ pounds sirloin steak pieces with salt and pepper.
- Spread steak pieces across the skillet in a single layer. Sear for exactly 3-4 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust develops. Transfer cooked steak to a clean plate.
- Reduce heat to medium and melt 3 tablespoons butter in the same skillet. Add 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms and ½ cup chopped onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Sauté mushrooms and onions for 5-6 minutes until they release their moisture and become tender. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Dust 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour over the mushroom mixture. Stir constantly for 1 minute to prevent burning and create a roux.
- Gradually pour 1 ½ cups beef broth into the skillet, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Simmer at 200°F for 2-3 minutes until gravy thickens.
- Mix in 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce. Return steak pieces and accumulated juices to the skillet.
- Heat the steak in the gravy for 1-2 minutes until warmed through. Remove from heat and sprinkle 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley on top.
- Serve immediately with mashed potatoes or egg noodles for a hearty meal.
Notes
- Choose a well-marbled cut like sirloin or tenderloin for maximum flavor and tenderness in your beef tips.
- Get your skillet blazing hot before adding steak to ensure a perfect golden-brown sear that locks in delicious juices.
- Don’t crowd the pan when cooking steak pieces, which prevents proper browning and can make the meat steam instead of developing a crispy exterior.
- When making the gravy, whisk beef broth slowly and steadily to prevent lumps and create a silky smooth sauce that coats the meat beautifully.
