Sirloin Tips In Wine
Tender sirloin cubes cooked in a rich wine and mushroom sauce, perfect for a hearty dinner that pairs well with potatoes or pasta.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Brown the sirloin steak cubes in butter and salad oil in a skillet.
- Add the whole mushrooms to the skillet and cook for a few minutes.
- Stir in 3/4 cup beef bouillon, Burgundy wine, soy sauce, and onion salt.
- Continue cooking until flavors meld and meat is tender.
- Remove the meat from the skillet and place into a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Use the drippings in the skillet to prepare a sauce with cornstarch if desired.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider marinating the sirloin cubes in the Burgundy wine for a few hours before cooking. If you don’t have Burgundy wine, any dry red wine can work as a substitute. When thickening the sauce, mix the cornstarch with cold water before adding it to avoid clumps. Ensure you stir constantly while cooking to prevent sticking.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the sirloin tips over a bed of mashed potatoes or egg noodles to soak up the flavorful sauce. Pair with steamed vegetables like green beans or a fresh salad for a balanced meal. This dish also pairs beautifully with Hearty Bean And Barley Soup for a cozy dinner.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the sirloin tips in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of beef bouillon or water to maintain moisture. Stir occasionally until heated through. Avoid using the microwave as it may dry out the meat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other cuts of beef instead of sirloin?
Yes, you can use cuts like flank steak or chuck roast, but be aware that cooking times may vary. Chuck roast may take longer to become tender, while flank steak will require less time. Adjust cooking times accordingly to ensure the meat is cooked to your preference.
Is there a way to make this recipe gluten-free?
Absolutely! To make this dish gluten-free, simply replace soy sauce with a gluten-free alternative, such as tamari. Ensure that the beef bouillon you use is also gluten-free. This way, you can enjoy the flavors without any gluten concerns.
What can I do with leftover sauce?
Leftover sauce can be great on grilled vegetables or as a marinade for other meats. You can also use it to enhance other dishes like Beef Zucchini Casserole. Just store it separately in the refrigerator for up to a week and reheat before using.
