Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces russet potatoes (large)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 250 grams sirloin steak, diced
- 200 grams button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Carefully scrub and pat dry the russet potatoes. Pierce each potato several times with a fork, place them on a baking sheet, and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender.
While the potatoes are baking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced sirloin steak and cook for 3-5 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally. Remove the steak from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, and cook for another 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and just beginning to brown.
Push the mushrooms and onions to one side of the skillet and add the butter to the empty space. Once melted, sprinkle in the flour and whisk to create a roux, cooking for 1-2 minutes.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the cooked steak to the skillet and mix well to coat with the sauce. Reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Cut a deep slit in the top of each potato and gently fluff the inside with a fork.
Top each baked potato with a generous portion of the steak and mushroom mixture. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
