Beef Tips

This one was a hit with all!  Amazing!!  Hooray!!   :)  It was quick and easy and we will definitely have it again.  I got the recipe from Allrecipes.com.  

Beef Tips with Rice

1/2 onion, chopped

2 pounds cubed beef stew meat or steak strips

2 cups water

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup worcestershire sauce

1 teas. garlic powder

1 teas. salt

1 teas. pepper

2 packets brown gravy mix

I used steaks, thawed, cut in strips and browned, but you could easily use stew meat.  Saute onion in oil until almost translucent.  Add the browned beef.  Pour 2 cups water, soy sauce, worcestershire sauce in the skillet.  Stir in garlic powder, salt and pepper.  Bring to a boil and reduce heat.  Cover and simmer for 1/2 hour (or until meat is cooked).  Combine gravy mix with additional 1 cup of water.  Mix thoroughly and stir into the meat mixture.  Bring to a boil stirring frequently until slightly thickened.
