STEAK WITH ONIONS AND GRAVY

by

Steak with onions and gravy is a classic comfort food dish that’s both hearty and delicious. Here’s a simple recipe to make it:

Ingredients for STEAK WITH ONIONS AND GRAVY

  • 2 boneless beef steaks (such as ribeye or sirloin)
  • 2 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: Worcestershire sauce, thyme, or rosemary for extra flavor

Instructions:

  1. Season the steaks: Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides. You can also add a dash of Worcestershire sauce or your favorite steak seasoning for extra flavor. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for about 15-30 minutes before cooking.
  2. Sear the steaks: Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it heat up. Place the steaks in the hot skillet and sear them for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your steaks more well-done. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
  3. Cook the onions: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions. Cook them over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and caramelized, which can take about 15-20 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  4. Make the gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the caramelized onions and garlic. Stir well to combine and cook for a couple of minutes to get rid of the raw flour taste. Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook until the gravy thickens, usually for about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Finish the dish: Return the seared steaks to the skillet with the gravy and onions. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, or until the steaks are heated through and fully coated in the gravy. Add butter and stir it into the gravy for extra richness and shine.
  6. Serve: Plate the steaks with the onion and gravy mixture spooned over the top. You can garnish with fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary if desired.

This steak with onions and gravy recipe pairs well with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables. Enjoy your delicious and comforting meal!
