This is fabulous, melt in your mouth delicious!!! I've already made these twice since finding the recipe. The dijon flavor is just perfect, not overpowering the beef. The first time I followed the recipe exactly as posted. The second time I cut the baking time to one hour and it was just as fantastic. I served the tips with brown rice and broccoli. You can bet it won't be long before I make this again, and again, and again, and...

This is amazing! I used beef tenderloin tips. I increased the amount of sauce using: 2 t dark soy sauce, 1 T Dijon and 1 T cornstarch. I used 3/4 C half and half. Followed the directions but added the sauce to the beef & mushrooms, while in the oven, 30 minutes before serving. Served over mashed potatoes. Thanks for sharing your MIL & family recipe! It's another 5 star rating from my family of 4 for 20 stars! :D

This has become a favorite staple in our house. I dust the meat with 1/4 tsp garlic powder to save a step and I skip the mushrooms. I bias-cut the meat into thin strips, not sure if that makes much of a difference but it's how I like it. I also add 1/3 c beef broth to the meat in the oven to keep it nice and moist. I halve the dijon and sub milk for cream. Typically I end up adding another 2 tsp cornstarch and water slurry at the end to get it nice and thick and it's delicious over hot buttered egg noodles. Also, I tried substituting round steak tonight for the first time, it didn't come out quite as tender but still lip-smacking good!
