This tender savory Trader Joes Rosemary Steak Tips Recipe is made with sirloin beef and fresh herbs and ready in 25 minutes. The rich balsamic marinade caramelizes beautifully in a hot skillet to create a dark crust. I love making these for a quick weeknight dinner when I crave a hearty meal.
Restaurant-Quality At Home
I used to buy the pre-packaged version every time I went shopping. The flavor was great, but the cuts of meat were sometimes inconsistent.
Making the marinade from scratch solved the problem immediately. I learned that letting the beef sit at room temperature before searing prevents it from steaming in its own juices.
Jump to RecipeTrader Joes Rosemary Steak Tips Recipe Ingredients
- 1 lb beef sirloin tips, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp butter

How To Make Trader Joes Rosemary Steak Tips Recipe
- Mix the marinade: Whisk the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
- Coat the beef: Add the sirloin tips to the bowl and toss until evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature.
- Heat the skillet: Place a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter until foaming.
- Sear the meat: Add the steak tips in a single layer. Cook for 3 minutes without moving them to build a crust.
- Flip and finish: Turn the pieces over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes for a medium-rare finish.
- Rest the steak: Transfer the beef to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Recipe Tips
- Dry the meat: Pat the raw beef dry with a paper towel before marinating for a better sear.
- Do not crowd the pan: Cook in batches if necessary to keep the skillet hot and prevent boiling.
- Use fresh rosemary: Dried rosemary will not provide the same bright, piney flavor as fresh sprigs.
What To Serve With Trader Joes Rosemary Steak Tips
These savory bites pair incredibly well with creamy mashed potatoes or a simple side of roasted asparagus. You can also serve them over a crisp green salad with a sharp vinaigrette to cut through the richness.

How To Store
Keep leftover steak in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a warm skillet to prevent the meat from drying out.
FAQs
Can I use a different cut of beef?
Yes, you can cube a ribeye or strip steak if you cannot find sirloin tips.
How long can I marinate the meat?
You can leave the beef in the fridge for up to 12 hours. Any longer and the vinegar will make the meat mushy.
Can I grill these instead?
Absolutely. Thread the marinated tips onto skewers and grill over high heat for about 5 minutes total.
