Step-by-Step Instructions
To start with, I heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, I add the chopped onions and sauté them until they become translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, I toss in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking everything together until the mushrooms are tender. The smell is absolutely heavenly and fills my kitchen with comfort! After that’s all cooked down, I add in the ground beef. I break it apart using my spatula and season it with salt and pepper as it browns. Once cooked through, I pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, letting this simmer for a few minutes to develop those robust flavors. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
