Ingredients
-
1 lb beef sirloin or stew meat, cut into thin strips
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
1 small onion, finely chopped
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
-
2 tbsp flour
-
4 cups beef broth
-
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
-
1 tsp Dijon mustard
-
1/2 tsp paprika
-
8 oz egg noodles (or pasta of your choice)
-
1/2 cup sour cream
-
1/4 cup heavy cream (optional for extra creaminess)
-
Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
-
Brown the Beef:
-
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
-
-
Sauté the Vegetables:
-
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they release their moisture and become tender.
-
-
Make the Sauce:
-
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables in the pot and stir to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
-
Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring, making sure to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
-
-
Cook the Noodles:
-
Add the uncooked egg noodles to the pot and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cover the pot. Let it cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and most of the liquid has absorbed.
-
-
Finish the Sauce:
-
Once the noodles are cooked, return the browned beef to the pot and stir in the sour cream (and heavy cream if using) until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
-
-
Serve:
- Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper as needed. Serve the beef stroganoff hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
-
For a healthier version, you can use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream.
-
You can also add frozen peas or spinach for extra veggies and color.
-
This dish is perfect served with a side of steamed broccoli or a simple green salad.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of beef broth if needed.
