Creole Beef Tips

Directions

1. 1
   Brown your flour in a dry pan. This will take about 10-12 minutes. Stir often so the flour does not burn. All you want here is a light brown color. (It will get darker in the later stages when you add it back into the vegetables). Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

   Season tips with 1 tsp of seasoning. Cover and set aside.
3. 3
   Chop all veggies and set aside.

   Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat for about four minutes. Add the beef tips and brown well on all sides. When done transfer beef and all juices to a bowl.
5. 5
   Add the onion, celery and bell pepper to the pan. Add 1/2 cup stock, 1 tsp seasoning and 1 tsp Worcestershire. Cook and stir until all liquid has evaporated.
6. 6
   Let the veggies stick to the pot one minute. Stir then let stick one more minute.
