Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef tips
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Onion
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 3 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 leaf Bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Arrowroot powder
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Begin by patting the beef tips dry with paper towels to ensure they sear properly. Season them with salt and black pepper.
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef tips in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot, and brown them on all sides. This should take about 4-5 minutes per batch. Once browned, remove from the pot and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and in the same pot, add the finely chopped onion. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the onions and sauté for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to caramelize and develop a deeper flavor.
Return the beef tips to the pot, along with any accumulated juices.
Add the beef broth, coconut aminos, bay leaf, and thyme. Stir to combine all ingredients and ensure the beef is submerged in the liquid.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it cook for approximately 1 hour, or until the beef is tender.
Check periodically to stir and ensure the beef does not stick to the bottom, adding a splash of water or broth if necessary.
Once the beef is tender, mix the arrowroot powder with water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir it into the pot to thicken the sauce.
Cook for an additional 5 minutes uncovered, allowing the sauce to thicken.
Remove the bay leaf and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper to taste if necessary.
Serve the savory beef tips hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy over cauli-rice or a side of choice that's Whole30 compliant.
