Cooking method

Step 1:

How do you bake beef with mushrooms in the oven? Gather your ingredients. Use beef from a tender cut — chilled meat is best, since it stays juicier. If it's frozen, thaw it properly first. Any mushrooms will work; I used button mushrooms.
Step 2:

Rinse the beef thoroughly, pat it dry, and cut it into serving-size pieces.
Step 3:

Peel the onion and cut it into rings.
Step 4:

Mince half the garlic.
Step 5:

Add the onion, minced garlic, salt, paprika, black pepper, and dried herbs to the beef. Use whatever spices and amounts you like.
Step 6:

Pour the wine over the beef, stir, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for 5–7 hours. Use a good, natural dry red wine — a very cheap bottle is a mistake, since it will spoil the flavor of the finished dish.
Step 7:

Lift the meat out of the marinade and place it on a greased baking pan. Strain the marinade and pour it into the pan with the meat. Cover the dish with foil and put it in the oven. Braise the beef for about 40 minutes at 350°F (180°C).
Step 8:

Wash and thoroughly dry the mushrooms, then cut them into quarters.
Step 9:

Cut the remaining garlic cloves in half.
Step 10:

Take the dish out of the oven, arrange the mushrooms and garlic around the meat, and scatter rosemary needles over the top. Return the dish to the oven, this time uncovered. Bake about 20 minutes more, until the meat is done. Serve with the sauce that forms during baking. Enjoy!

Beef is very easy to overcook — when that happens, it turns tough and dry. So try to marinate it for at least 5 hours.
You can swap the beef for whatever meat you prefer, but keep in mind that the cooking time, flavor, and calories will change. Pork and lamb are usually fattier than beef, while chicken breast or turkey are leaner. Cooking time also depends on the cut and on how young or old the meat is.
Remember that how you thaw your ingredients has a lot to do with the quality and flavor of the finished dish, so defrost carefully.
Keep in mind that every oven is different. Temperatures and times may vary from what's given here — get to know your oven for the best results with any baked dish.
