Easy Beef Bourguignonne

Okay I swear that I have other sources for recipes, but Real Simple is the star of my kitchen right now! Typically I tweak their recipes just a little bit, but this one I made straight up. It takes 30 minutes and involves very little prep work. This is perfect for a Friday night dinner or Sunday lunch. You can serve it with rice or potatoes. Or really whatever you like.

1.25 lbs sirloin steak cut into one inch pieces (I used london broil)
10 oz of fresh sliced mushrooms
16 oz pk frozen cocktail onions (I used the jarred ones because I couldn't find frozen)
2 cups of red wine (if you don't drink a lot of wine, buy the singles so the rest doesn't go bad; also I used cabernet sauvignon)
1 10.75 oz can of Campbell's Golden Mushroom soup
olive oil
salt and pepper

I used my enameled cast iron pot for this.  If you have one, or a dutch oven you should use it!
Heat 1 tbs of olive oil until shiny. Drop in your meat and brown it until its not pink.  It's tempting to keep stirring it, but really just let it brown on one side then turn it over.  Brown food tastes good!
Move your meat to a separate bowl and drop in your mushrooms and onions. Cook until the moisture evaporates. Pour in the red wine, reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half. BE PATIENT! Add the can of soup and 1/4 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Return the meat and juices from the bowl to the pot. Salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for two more minutes, and serve over rice or with potatoes and a green vegetable.
Serves 4.

I packaged up the leftovers and frozen 1/2. Real Simple says the frozen leftovers will be for 3 months.
