Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb sirloin steak tips, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tsp kosher salt plus more to taste
  • 0.75 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion about 1 small
  • 1.5 tsp minced garlic
  • 0.75 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tsp soy sauce optional, for depth
  • 1.5 cup low-sodium beef broth
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour for slurry
  • 2 tbsp water for slurry
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream optional, for a richer gravy
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Pat steak tips dry, then season all over with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sear steak tips in two batches until browned, 2–3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate with juices.
  • Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in the pan. Add mushrooms and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in onion; cook until softened, 3–4 minutes. Add garlic and thyme; cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Splash in Worcestershire and soy sauce. Scrape up browned bits from the skillet.
  • Whisk flour with water to make a smooth slurry. Pour broth and slurry into the pan, whisking to combine.
  • Simmer, stirring, until the gravy gently thickens, 3–5 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, if using.
  • Return steak and any juices to the pan. Simmer 2–3 minutes to warm through without overcooking.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning. Finish with parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Try a splash of dry red wine with the Worcestershire for deeper flavor. Serve over mashed potatoes, buttered egg noodles, or rice. For a gluten-free version, swap the flour slurry for 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water. Leftovers keep 3 days refrigerated; reheat gently with a splash of broth.
