Ingredients

Scale

Beef and Sauce

  • 1.5 pounds beef sirloin tips, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (gluten-free if needed)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef: Trim any excess fat from the beef sirloin tips and pat them dry with paper towels. This ensures a good sear and prevents steaming during cooking.
  2. Brown the Beef: Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef tips in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Brown the beef on all sides until it develops a rich, caramelized crust, then remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add diced onions and minced garlic. Stir frequently until they soften and release their sweet, fragrant aroma—about 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Deglaze and Simmer: Add Worcestershire sauce and beef broth to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom to capture all the flavor. Return the beef tips back to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  5. Finish with Butter and Garnish: Once the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly—about 15 to 20 minutes—stir in butter for a glossy, rich finish. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top before serving to add freshness and visual appeal.

Notes

  • Use quality beef: Choose well-marbled sirloin or tenderloin tips for enhanced tenderness and flavor.
  • Pat dry before browning: Removing moisture helps create a better sear and richer sauce.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan: Brown the beef in batches to avoid steaming and uneven cooking.
  • Simmer patiently: Low and slow heat helps melt connective tissue, making beef wonderfully tender.
  • Rest before serving: Let the beef tips rest for a few minutes to redistribute juices evenly throughout.
