Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin or stew meat
- 250 grams white button mushrooms
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Cut the beef into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1-inch pieces. Pat dry with paper towels and season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Thinly slice the mushrooms, dice the onion, and finely mince the garlic. Set them aside.
In a large skillet or heavy-bottomed pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes in batches until browned on all sides, about 3–4 minutes per batch. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Once melted, sauté the onions for 2–3 minutes until softened and translucent. Next, add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms and dried thyme. Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their moisture and are golden brown.
Stir in the rice, coating it in the flavorful mixture. Cook for 1–2 minutes to toast the rice lightly.
Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce, scraping up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Return the seared beef to the pan and stir everything together.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer for 18–20 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and tender.
Remove from heat and let the dish rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Mushroom Beef Rice!
