Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/4 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1 inch pieces
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms (such as cremini)
- 1/2 cup onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over high heat. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper to taste.
- Step 2: Place the meat in the pan in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the pieces are nicely browned.
- Step 3: Remove the steak from the pan and cover to keep warm.
- Step 4: Melt the butter in the same pan. Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onions, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Step 5: Cook the mushrooms and onions for 5-6 minutes, or until they become tender and browned. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Step 6: Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute while stirring constantly to form a roux.
- Step 7: Slowly whisk in the beef broth, ensuring the mixture is smooth. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce.
- Step 8: Return the steak pieces to the pan, tossing them in the mushroom gravy. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the meat is warmed through.
- Step 9: Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving to add freshness and color.
Tips & Variations
- For extra richness, finish the sauce with a splash of heavy cream or sour cream.
- Feel free to use button mushrooms if cremini aren’t available—they work just as well.
- Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered egg noodles to soak up the delicious gravy.
- Marinate the steak pieces briefly in Worcestershire and soy sauce for an even deeper flavor before cooking.
Storage
Store any leftover beef tips in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of beef broth if the sauce thickens too much.

Beef and Seasoning
- 1 1/4 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch pieces
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Mushroom Gravy
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions
- Heat the oil and season the beef: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over high heat. Season the sirloin steak pieces with salt and pepper to taste to prepare them for searing.
- Sear the beef: Place the steak pieces in the pan in a single layer and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned on the outside to lock in the juices.
- Remove and keep warm: Remove the browned steak pieces from the pan and cover them to keep warm while preparing the gravy.
- Cook mushrooms and onions: Melt the butter in the same pan, then add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onions. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 5-6 minutes until tender and browned.
- Add garlic and cook briefly: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Incorporate flour: Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid lumps and to form a roux.
- Add broth and sauces: Slowly whisk in the beef broth to the pan until smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until it thickens. Then stir in Worcestershire sauce and low sodium soy sauce to deepen the flavor.
- Combine beef and gravy: Return the seared steak pieces back to the pan. Toss them gently to coat with the mushroom gravy and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the beef is warmed through.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley over the dish for freshness and color, then serve hot over your choice of sides.
Notes
- For best results, use sirloin steak as it stays tender after cooking.
- You can substitute cremini mushrooms with button or portobello mushrooms.
