Instructions
To create the flavorful Delicious Beef Tips with Savory Mushroom Gravy, follow these simple steps:
1. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
2. Brown the Beef: Add the beef stew meat in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Brown on all sides for about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef and set it aside.
3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Then, stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms are golden and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Make the Gravy Base: Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir for 1 minute. This helps to thicken the gravy.
5. Combine Ingredients: Gradually pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce, stirring continuously to remove lumps.
6. Add Beef: Return the browned beef along with any accumulated juices back into the skillet. Add the thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine.
7. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it cook for 40-50 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
8. Check for Seasoning: Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed before serving.
9. Garnish: Stir in freshly chopped parsley just before serving to add a pop of color and flavor.
Following these steps will guide you in preparing a hearty and satisfying meal that everyone will love.
