Beef and Mushroom Bites with Sauce is a luxurious dish featuring juicy seared beef cubes and earthy mushrooms, all coated in a rich, creamy Dijon and wine-infused sauce. Perfect for both appetizers and main courses.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb beef tenderloin or sirloin, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 2 cups cremini or button mushrooms, halved
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup beef broth or red wine
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream or sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Sear beef cubes on all sides until browned but still tender inside. Remove from pan and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add onions and garlic. Sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add mushrooms and cook until browned and tender, about 5–6 minutes.
  5. Deglaze the pan with beef broth or red wine, scraping up any browned bits.
  6. Reduce heat and stir in cream and Dijon mustard. Simmer until sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Return beef to the pan and toss to coat in the sauce. Simmer for 2–3 more minutes to heat through.
  8. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan when searing beef—work in batches if needed.
  • Use sour cream for a tangier stroganoff-style variation.
  • Red wine deepens the flavor; choose a dry variety like Cabernet or Merlot.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes, pasta, or toasted baguette slices.
  • For a dairy-free version, use unsweetened cashew cream and omit butter.
