Steak

Gravy

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the beef sirloin steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop the onion and garlic cloves finely. Slice the mushrooms.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sear the Steak

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked to your liking. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Make the Gravy

    In the same skillet, add butter and let it melt. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until they are soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Then add the sliced mushrooms and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.

  3. 5

    Thicken the Gravy

    Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir continuously for about 1 minute. Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes until the gravy thickens.

  4. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Return the seared steaks to the skillet, spooning the gravy over them. Let them simmer in the gravy for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
