Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb beef tips
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup red wine (or additional beef broth)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (adjust to taste)
  • 2 cups bow tie pasta (farfalle)
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen peas

Instructions

  1. Sear the Beef (10 minutes): In a large skillet or pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef tips and sear them until they are browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.

  3. Make the Sauce (15 minutes): Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Pour in the beef broth and red wine, whisking consistently. Bring the mixture to a simmer, and let it thicken slightly. Return the beef tips to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and let everything simmer together for about 10 minutes.
  4. Cook the Pasta (10 minutes): While the beef is simmering, bring a pot of salted water to boil. Add the bow tie pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the peas to blanch. Drain the pasta and peas together.
