One-Skillet Savory Beef And Gravy
Wow! I just had a big bowl of this
Savory Beef And Gravy
tonight with my noodles! This is seriously delicious and my whole family loved it. I used a two-pound tenderloin instead of one, so we had enough for leftovers. Using sliced fresh mushrooms cut the prep time by at least 30 minutes – they would be very difficult to chop up (I hate chopping up mushrooms). I let these cook for longer than suggested because the person who gave me the recipe said this was her favorite meat sauce, and let me tell you she’s right. This One Skillet Savory Beef And Gravy is our new go-to comfort food! For those that saying that it was too thick, you can use some leaner beef (ie trim off and discard any visible fat in your meat), reduce the cream to 1/2 cup, or split the recipe in half…..it still tastes great even if you don’t use all ingredients called for.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb beef tenderloin or good quality beef steak
- 1/2 lb sliced crimini mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 large cloves of garlic minced
- 1/4 tsp Pepper, fresh ground
- 1 (14 ounces) can low sodium beef broth
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- When the butter has melted, add the mushrooms and sauté until they are light golden brown, about 8 minutes. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the onions have softened and the mushrooms have turned golden brown.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook for 30 seconds after adding the garlic.
- Combine flour, steak bits, salt, and pepper in a large Ziploc bag. To coat, shake well.
- Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook until the meat is lightly browned. Transfer to a plate.
- In a bowl, pour 1/2 cup beef broth and leave aside.
- Add the rest of the beef broth and the worcestershıre sauce to the mıxture. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup flour and beef broth. Whisk the flour mixture into the beef broth mixture in the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Return the mushroom mixture and the beef to the pan and cook for another 5-10 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve over egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes for a hearty meal.
- Enjoy.
