Ingredients
Scale
For the Beef Tips:
- 1 ½ pounds beef sirloin tips, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions
- Prepare the Beef Tips: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef tips until browned on all sides, about 5–7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Make the Gravy: In the same skillet, cook the onion until softened, then add garlic. Return beef to the skillet, add broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, thyme, and pepper. Simmer, covered, on low heat for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
