Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 Large onions, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet, season with half the salt and pepper, and cook for 3-5 minutes or until browned on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil, the butter, and the thinly sliced onions. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the onions for 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until caramelized and golden brown.
Add the minced garlic to the onions and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic. Stir continuously for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring to create a smooth sauce. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer the sauce for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken further.
Return the browned beef to the skillet and mix it with the creamy onion sauce. Simmer for another 5-7 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with the remaining salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
