Instructions
- Pat beef dry and season on all sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large saute pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Add beef and sear for 2-3 minutes per side. Cook in batches depending on the size of your pan. It won’t be cooked through at this point. Set aside.
- Melt butter in the pan. Add onion and a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium, and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently.
- Stir in 2 cups beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and Italian seasoning. Return beef back into the pan with any juices.
- Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 25-30 minutes until the beef is tender.
- Dissolve cornstarch in 3 tablespoons of water. Stir into the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the sauce thickens to your liking. Stir in additional broth to thin the sauce as needed.
- Serve beef tips and gravy over garlic mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!

-
- For Extra Flavor: Deglaze the pan with a splash of red wine before adding the broth.
-
- Make it Richer: Use a combination of beef broth and a splash of heavy cream for a creamier sauce.
-
- Test for Tenderness: You’ll know the beef is done when it falls apart easily when shredded with two forks. If it isn’t fall-apart-tender, cook it for a bit longer.
