Ingredients
Beef Mixture
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Sauce & Noodles
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 3 cups beef broth
- 8 oz egg noodles
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Finishing Touches
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Heat the Oil: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat to prepare for cooking the beef.
- Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary to avoid greasiness.
- Sauté Vegetables: Add the diced onion and sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds to release its aroma.
- Incorporate Flour: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the mixture and stir well to coat and create a roux base for thickening the sauce.
- Add Liquids and Seasonings: Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
- Cook Noodles: Stir in the egg noodles and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- Simmer: Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 10–12 minutes until the noodles are tender and have absorbed the flavors.
- Finish with Sour Cream: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sour cream gently to create a creamy sauce without curdling.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the stroganoff and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Stir the sour cream in after removing the pan from the heat to prevent curdling.
- Ground turkey can be substituted for beef for a leaner option.
- Serve with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables to complete the meal.
