Ingredients
  

1 pound beef sirloin or tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

8 ounces mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)

2 cups beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or cornstarch for a gluten-free option)

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and season with salt and pepper. Sear the beef for about 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

    In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

      Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their moisture.

        In a small bowl, mix the flour with 1/4 cup of beef broth to create a slurry. This will help thicken the gravy.

          Return the beef to the skillet with the mushrooms and onions. Pour in the remaining beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and thyme. Stir well to combine.

            Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the gravy to thicken. Gradually add the slurry while stirring continuously until the desired gravy thickness is achieved.

              Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

                Remove from heat and let it sit for a few minutes to cool slightly before serving.
