Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds beef sirloin tips
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large, diced yellow onion
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 cup long-grain rice
• 2 cups water
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Season the beef sirloin tips with salt and pepper, then toss them in the flour until evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef tips in batches, searing them until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onion. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and bay leaf. Stir to combine.

Step 5

Return the seared beef tips to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and braise for 60-75 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.

Step 6

While the beef is cooking, prepare the rice. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice and water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

Step 7

Once the beef is tender and the sauce is flavorful, remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

Serve the braised sirloin tips over the cooked rice. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Enjoy your hearty and comforting meal!
