Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef sirloin tips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
Begin by cutting the beef sirloin tips into bite-sized pieces. Pat them dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper.
Finely chop the onion, and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef tips in a single layer, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped onion. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Return the beef tips to the skillet and let them simmer in the sauce for about 25 minutes, or until tender.
Incorporate the unsalted butter, swirling it into the sauce until melted.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the mixture while constantly stirring to avoid lumps. Allow the sauce to thicken for a couple of minutes.
Season with additional salt and pepper to taste if necessary, and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves before serving.
Serve the beef tips and gravy over your choice of low-carb options, such as cauliflower mash or steamed green beans, and enjoy!
