1/2cupwhite wine(optional)
3cupsbeef stock
2tablespoonsWorcestershire sauce
1teaspoononion powder
1tablespoonItalian seasoning
1tablespoondijon mustard
2tablespoonschopped parsley
Instructions
Place the steak pieces in a large bowl and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, garlic powder, salt and pepper together in a bowl.
Pour the cornstarch over the steak and toss to coat all the pieces evenly.
Add the olive oil to a large deep skillet over medium high heat. Heat until shimmering.
Add the steak to the pan and cook until a golden brown crust forms on all sides, working in batches if necessary. (Do not crowd the pan or the steak will not brown properly.)
Remove the steak from the pan and keep warm on a platter or plate.
Add the onion to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened.
Stir in the mushrooms and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until browned.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute longer.
Stir in the white wine and deglaze the pan by scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. (The brown bits are called fond and they will add tons of flavor to your gravy.)
Continue to cook the wine until reduced by 1/2.
Whisk in the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil then turn the heat to low. Continue to cook until slightly thickened.
Stir in the onion powder, Italian seasoning and dijon mustard until smooth.
Return the beef tips to the pan and season with salt/pepper, to taste.
Serve immediately over eggs noodles sprinkled with parsley, if desired.
Notes
If you don't want to use wine, you can substitute with an equal amount of apple juice or beef stock.
