Scale

2 pounds beef stew meat or sirloin tips, cut into chunks

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup

1 packet onion soup mix

1 1/2 cups beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon paprika

2 tablespoons cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)

12 oz egg noodles, cooked according to package directions

Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

1. In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear beef in olive oil until browned on all sides (optional for deeper flavor).

2. Transfer beef to the crockpot.

3. Add chopped onion, garlic, cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and paprika.

4. Stir gently to combine.

5. Cover and cook on low for 7–8 hours or high for 4–5 hours, until beef is tender.

6. About 30 minutes before serving, stir together cornstarch and water, then mix into the crockpot to thicken the sauce.

8. Serve beef tips and gravy over noodles, garnished with parsley if desired.

For a richer flavor, use a splash of red wine in place of some of the broth.

This dish pairs well with steamed green beans or a side salad.
