Description
A delicious and comforting Savory Steak and Onion Pie, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 package (14 ounces) refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Add the beef stew meat to the skillet. Season with salt, black pepper, and thyme. Brown the meat on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and beef broth. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low. Let it cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add this to the skillet and stir until the mixture thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Roll out one pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie pan. Fill with the beef and onion mixture.
- Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Seal the edges by crimping with a fork. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Brush the top crust with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of red wine to the beef mixture while it simmers.
- If you prefer a vegetable boost, add diced carrots or peas to the filling before baking.
