Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds beef sirloin tips
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, toss the beef tips with flour, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Step 2

Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the coated beef tips to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned. Work in batches if necessary. Remove the beef tips and set them aside on a plate.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan for extra flavor.

Step 6

Return the seared beef tips to the skillet and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually stir the slurry into the skillet while simmering to thicken the sauce. Cook for 2-3 more minutes until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

Step 8

Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot over rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.
