Keto Beef Tips Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds beef tips (cubed sirloin or chuck steak)
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons avocado oil
8 oz sliced mushrooms
1/2 red onion, diced
3/4 cup beef broth
1/4 cup red wine
1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
9 oz hearts of palm spaghetti
Beef Tips and Noodles Directions
-
Season beef tips
Pat steak tips with a paper towel to dry. Then season all sides with salt and pepper.
-
Sear beef tips
Add avocado oil to a skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Working in batches to not over crowd the pan, add beef tips and sear for a few minutes on all sides until browned (6-8 minutes). Remove from the skillet when all have been cooked.
-
Sauté mushrooms and onion
To the same skillet, add mushrooms, onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Sauté mushrooms and onions until softened.
-
Braise the beef tips
Stir in broth, wine and thyme. Scrap the skillet as the liquid comes to a boil to get the brown bits of flavor off the bottom of the skillet. Add back in the steak tips and simmer until broth has reduced by half.
-
Make it creamy
Remove skillet from the heat and stir in sour cream, Dijon mustard and noodles.
I made this last night and it turned out absolutely delicious. The creamy Dijon sauce had such a rich flavor and paired beautifully with the tender beef. I especially loved the texture of the hearts of palm noodles, which soaked up the sauce perfectly.
I followed the recipe exactly and the searing step really developed a deep savory flavor in the beef tips. Braising them in the red wine and beef broth mixture made the meat incredibly tender. The red onion added a nice mild sweetness that balanced the creamy sauce. I also appreciated how the Dijon mustard gave the sauce a subtle tang that cut through the richness.
Is there a good substitute for red wine in this recipe?
For a non-alcoholic substitution for the red wine, just use chicken or beef broth.
The red wine and thyme really deepened the flavor of the gravy, and braising the beef tips helped them turn out super tender. I appreciated how scraping up the browned bits added an extra savory richness to the sauce. I did notice the sour cream thickened the gravy beautifully when added off the heat, which gave the dish a smooth, creamy finish. The hearts of palm noodles soaked up the sauce well, but I might sauté them separately next time to get a firmer texture.
Delicious! Another winner for my non-keto husband. I used It’s Skinny konjac noodles and they were just fine. Thanks!
I didnt know “noodles” like this existed. They really seem to open up some new recipes. The noodles themselves are not amazing but they are good enough and with sauce or gravy they are acceptable. Thank you for this recipe. The mushrooms helped finish this recipe.
Perfect for dinner!
