Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef stew meat (or sirloin tips)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Season the beef stew meat with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Return the beef to the skillet and pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Stir to combine.
Step 5
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it cook for 35-40 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually stir the slurry into the skillet to thicken the gravy. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the gravy reaches your desired consistency.
Step 7
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish, if desired.
Step 8
Serve the beef tips hot over rice, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles. Enjoy!
