Ingredients

• 1 lb sirloin steak
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 large yellow onion
• 3 medium carrots
• 2 medium celery stalks
• 3 garlic cloves
• 6 cups beef broth
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 cups baby potatoes
• 3 sprigs fresh thyme
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Season the sirloin steak on both sides with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the steak and set it aside.

Step 3

Dice the yellow onion, carrots, and celery. Mince the garlic cloves. Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pot and sauté the onion, carrots, and celery for 5-6 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 4

Stir in the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce, cooking for 2 minutes to develop the flavors.

Step 5

Pour in the beef broth and deglaze the pot by scraping the browned bits from the bottom. Add the baby potatoes (halved if large), thyme sprigs, and bay leaf to the pot.

Step 6

Return the seared steak to the pot. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the steak from the soup and shred or dice it into bite-sized pieces. Discard any large fat pieces and return the meat to the soup.

Step 8

Add the frozen peas and stir. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 9

Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or black pepper as needed.

Step 10

Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of freshness.
