Beef with Mushroom Recipe

Each meaty bite is bursting with big beefy flavor. The gravy adds so much moisture and the starch makes the meal more filling. Plates are always clean and bellies are happy!

Shallots and onions make a base for a rich gravy to coat each morsel of beef. I’m not a traditional gravy lover, but this brown sauce is amazing! 

This is the type of meal I love to order in a restaurant, and now I love being able to make it at home in under 30 minutes. 

My husband says this meal is like beef and noodles with a higher quality. There is a depth of dimension to each bite that makes this beef skillet meal feel really special.

We typically use beef that we raise on the farm. I also like to purchase Certified Angus Beef at the grocery store which supports other family farms and ranches. I recently shared more about beef ranches and the sustainability of beef in my Cream Cheese & Beef Stuffed Shells recipe.

Tips & Tricks

• Use kitchen shears or a very sharp knife to cut steak into 3/4″ pieces
• Cut steak tips into evenly sized pieces for even cooking
• Remove and discard any large strips of fat
• Smaller pieces of steak allow for more flavorful coating on the outside
• White mushrooms may be used, but we prefer baby Bella mushroom slices for a heartier, deeper flavor. 
• Have all ingredients chopped, sliced and sitting by the stove when you begin this recipe as it will move quickly at some points
• I like to use a Keurig coffee maker to heat water and stir Better than Bouillon into the hot water to make my broth.
• Have a wooden spoon handy and be prepared to stir the skillet often.

How to Make Beef Tips with Gravy

Cut sirloin steak or other lean cut of beef into 3/4″ inch cubes.

Coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and turn to medium-high heat. Brown beef tips on all sides. Turn often until all sides are brown.

Set aside on a clean plate and cover.

Add butter to the skillet and saute shallots and sliced mushrooms over medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute for another minute.

Add soy sauce to the skillet and then sprinkle flour over the mushrooms. Stir to coat.

Season with salt and pepper. Add a few sprigs of thyme to the pan if desired.

Stir often. Add a little bit of broth. Then stirring constantly continue to add broth slowly. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened which takes about 2 minutes.

Once gravy has thickened add steak bites back to the skillet. Stir into gravy and cook until warmed through.

Serve immediately and enjoy!
