Description
Tender, slow-simmered beef tips infused with rich balsamic, fragrant rosemary, and earthy mushrooms—it’s a dish that tastes like it’s been cooking all day (because it has). Pearl onions melt into the savory sauce, making every bite bold, balanced, and deeply satisfying. Rustic comfort with a gourmet edge.
Ingredients
2 lbs beef stew meat or sirloin tips
Salt & pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup pearl onions (fresh or frozen)
2 cups mushrooms, halved
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 cups beef broth
1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp dried)
1 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot + 2 tbsp water (GF thickener)
Instructions
Season beef with salt and pepper. Sear in batches in hot oil until browned. Set aside.
In the same pot, sauté mushrooms and pearl onions until golden. Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
Deglaze with balsamic vinegar, scraping up brown bits.
Return beef to the pot. Add broth and rosemary. Simmer covered for 1.5–2 hours, or until tender.
Whisk in thickener slurry and simmer a few more minutes until glossy. Adjust seasoning.
Serve over mashed potatoes, polenta, or cauliflower mash.
